Filtering the Home Page

You can view student information for most sections of the Home page factors as an entire classroom or for a specific student. There are a few ways to filter Home page information: 

See an Entire Classroom

If you are associated with more than one classroom in DreamBox Math, select a classroom in the Classroom filter drop-down and leave the Student filter set to All Students.

Exploring the Currently Playing Section

The cards in Currently Playing will show slightly different details depending on whether you are viewing play for an entire class or a specific student.

Classroom View

If you are viewing an entire classroom:

  • Each tile shows at least part of the domain and standard name, and the number of students playing lessons associated with the standard in that domain.

Single Student View

If you are viewing a student: 

  • Each tile shows at least part of the domain and standard name. Unlike the classroom view, it will always show that only one student is playing a lesson associated with the standards in that domain.
