The My Lessons Page
The My Lessons page is the landing page of the 3rd-5th grade learning environment. Inside My Lessons, students can:
- Choose the lesson they want to play next.
- See and play assigned lessons.
- Open the lesson tracker to see their weekly progress.
- Play a nanogame (when available).

Students usually see six lesson tiles on the My Lessons page, unless a lesson has been replaced by a nanogame or an unavailable lesson icon.
Nanogames
| Nanogame icons appear as students play lessons and progress in DreamBox Math, they may be offered a nano-game. Nano-games are fun, 15- to 30-second minigames that disappear after they are played. Students can play a nano-game when they see a blue game controller tile as one of the options on their My Lessons page. |
Unavailable Lessons
| When students see unavailable lesson icons in My Lessons (lesson icons are grayed out), DreamBox Math is steering the student toward lessons the student needs to complete in preparation for new content. The lesson/s will remain unavailable until DreamBox Math confirms the student is ready for the new content. The quickest way to do this is for the student to continue to play and complete lessons that are still available. |
The Lesson Tracker
Students can click a tab on the right side of the Lesson Chooser and see their progress toward the weekly goal of completing 5 lessons a week. When students have completed 5 lessons between Sunday and Saturday, they will be congratulated in the tab and earn their first "Week Streak". The border around their lesson count will also change color based on how many lessons they have completed each week. Each consecutive week the student completes 5 lessons their Week Streak will grow. If they do not complete 5 lessons, the tab will revert to show the 5 lesson target goal again.

Students can “level up” their avatars with borders of bronze, silver, or gold by completing lessons. The border changes color when the three stars located below the avatar fill up.
Watch the video to see what students see when they finish a lesson and their stars, weekly goal, and earned coins are updated.
