"Think Up! helps me prepare my students with rigorous word problems"
4/5
What do you like best about ThinkUp!?

I really like the variety of word problems in the Think Up book. My students are able to see problems in several different ways and I don't have to search lots of materials to find them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThinkUp!?

The thing I like least about using Think Up is the lack of workspace on each page. The kids often don't have enough room to actually do the math on the same sheet and that can be frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Think Up makes a difference"
5/5

Rigor! The rigor level of the think up material really alligns well with the STAAR so I know that if my students can solve the problems in think up they will be fine on the STAAR test! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The online component really needs to be better. I wish there were a feature that made the assignments easily accessible and gradable through Google classroom without using outside resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ThinkUP!"
5/5
What do you like best about ThinkUp!?

The teachers like it a lot at our campus. It's rigorous and our scholars always do very well on STAAR using the materials. It has lessons by TEK, station activities, and is well laid out. Think Up really prepares them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThinkUp!?

The online version has leveled activities. The only bad thing is right now students don't have access to do it online but the teachers can print what they want to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great program for struggling learners!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ThinkUp!?

I like the different activities that are included and that it is broken up by TEKS. I love the game within each lesson, and the assessment questions are fantastic for making sure the concepts have been mastered! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThinkUp!?

Some of the questions are beyond the state testing level and need to be taken down a notch. I think that the concepts are great but need some revisiting.I would love to see some of these redone to make them 8th-grade state tested level Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
