Case Study: Coppell Independent School District builds dual-language STEM confidence with ExploreLearning

Coppell Independent School District builds dual-language STEM fluency over 15 years with ExploreLearning

The Coppell Independent School District, specifically fifth-grade dual language teacher Christine Scovill at Denton Creek Elementary, sought to empower students learning in both English and Spanish while validating their home experiences. The challenge was to build math and science competencies in a way that bridged language barriers and engaged both students and their families. ExploreLearning solutions, including Gizmos, Reflex, and Frax, were implemented to address this need.

ExploreLearning provided game-based and simulation-driven solutions that made learning accessible and engaging for dual language learners. The use of Reflex for math fact fluency, Frax for fractions, and Gizmos for STEM simulations allowed for individualized, hands-on learning. The results included increased student engagement and fluency, with the programs providing concrete data to share progress with families. ExploreLearning's tools became a stable, integral part of the classroom and district curriculum, successfully fostering a "yes, and" mindset that connected schoolwork to the real world and promoted meaningful conversations at home.
