Activity Feed: Lesson May Need Attention
The Activity Feed report shows a list of all lessons that all students in a classroom or a selected student have worked on over the past 30 days.
Lesson Cards: No Demonstrated Understanding & Lesson May Need Attention
When a student is struggling during a lesson, lesson cards will show one of these two icons:
| Icon | Meaning | ||
|
The student completed a lesson without demonstrating understanding. If a student does not demonstrate understanding, the program will adapt by either presenting the student with the same lesson so they can try it again, or present a different lesson that may better meet their learning needs.

How to Help
Play a sample of the lesson in the Activity Feed
In the lesson card, click the Demo Lesson button and play through the sample lesson to understand the concept, tasks and manipulatives, and to listen to the lesson prompt and try using the manipulative to work through the lesson.
Watch the Lesson Highlight
If you have access to Lesson Highlights and the student played the lesson within the last two weeks:
Return to the Home Page
In the Home Page filters, select this student's classroom and student name.
Search through the student's Lesson Highlights
Watch the student's lesson highlight playback for this lesson to identify where the student is struggling.

Assign a similar topic and coach the student as they play
When coaching the student, it is important that you do not solve the problems for them, but that you guide the student through how to think through the problems. Because DreamBox Math is adaptive, completing lessons for the student would cause the program to move them forward in the curriculum when they may not be ready.
