MAY 2026

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week, teachers!

Every student who walks in ready to learn has a teacher behind that. Many of us at Kiddom were shaped by those teachers, or were those teachers ourselves.

We're excited to celebrate you this week (not because it's on our calendars) because we believe in the power of learning from you.

"Ms. Banks was running a math class, but what I remember watching was something harder to build: a room full of kids who believed their voice belonged in the conversation about mathematics."

— Abbas Manjee, Co-Founder & Chief Academic Officer, on his visit with Arnelle Banks' 7th grade class, NYC District 11

A few new ways to keep your lesson moving

SPOTLIGHT MODE

Bring student thinking to the front of the room

Snap a photo of student work, put it on screen, and let the class discuss. No interrupting the lesson, no fumbling, no student worrying their name is showing.

STUDENT CALCULATOR

A calculator that appears exactly when students need it

You decide when it shows up inside Show Work questions. No more "can I use a calculator" debates. Students stay focused on the lesson.
