Built Specifically to TEKS Standards

Our content is never simply “Aligned”. We ensure all our questions are built from the ground up to prepare students for the rigor of the TEKS standards and Texas STAAR testing. Education Galaxy provides thousands of STAAR questions for you to use with online assessments and printable worksheets. Our content covers math, writing, reading, and science. Continually adding and updating content keeps us current. We are aligned to the streamlined science TEKS revisions being implemented in the 2018/2019 school year and we are in the process of re-aligning our ELAR content to be in-line with the new TEKS being implemented during the 2019/2020 school year.
Education Galaxy is Curiously Fun

Learning does not have to be boring! When students become engaged, they become successful learners. We created Education Galaxy to help students master the TEKS and to have fun while doing it. We provide many games and rewards that enhance the learning process without distracting the student. With Education Galaxy in your classroom, your students will beg for more!

Personalized Student TEK Study Plans

Every student receives their own personalized Texas STAAR Study Plan that allows them to see exactly how they are performing in each individual TEKS standard. Students can work self-paced, or teacher directed. Students work through their Study Plans to earn rewards and show mastery. Education Galaxy makes STAAR test prep fun and engaging!

Our Video Alien Explanations Provide Deep Instructional Support Like Never Before

Most online programs fail at providing adequate or helpful feedback to students after they miss questions. Many programs offer text based feedback that students rarely read and quickly ignore. Our revolutionary Alien Explanations provide video explanations for every single question that is specific to that question. This provides drill-down instruction to the very basic skills the students are struggling with. With Education Galaxy, your students will quickly master concepts because their instruction is tailored to them.

Content Delivered in English and/or Spanish

English and Spanish

All of our content for grades K-8 is available in both English and Spanish. 3 different language modes allows you to customize the experience for each student. Choose whether to allow students to toggle back-and-forth between English and Spanish, or to see questions in only English or Spanish. Perfect for ESL students and dual language campuses.

Questions built 100% to the rigor of STAAR

Texas STAAR Preparation is fun and rewarding with Education Galaxy. Students can take formative online TEKS assessments and receive immediate feedback when questions are answered incorrectly. Students must first get the correct answer before moving to the next question. When sessions are complete, students are given a full summary of their work and can even go back through missed questions. Study sessions allow for true STAAR assessment and provide valuable practice for students.

We Also Support Kindergarten and First Grade!

Along with wonderful solutions for grades 2-8, Education Galaxy provides amazingly fun solutions for our younger learners in kindergarten and first grade. Students are seamlessly integrated into an assessment environment with beautiful graphics, games, and fun questions. A real human voice reads all text to the students.

Comprehensive Reporting for Teachers

Texas teachers can easily pull different reports filtered either by student, class, grade level, subject or school. Reports allow teachers to quickly find the specific TEKS that students are doing well in and areas that require more instruction. Use individual student reports to help with parent teacher conferences or student progress reports. Our reports are all aligned to the TEKS and help ensure that your instruction and planning is data driven to support all learning needs for K-8.

Group Instruction Module

When students struggle on a question, play video Alien Explanations to provide specific instruction. Winning teams are rewarded with a QUICK game after each successful question. Best game score wins! Watch live as each student answers the questions and see the results immediately to grasp class and student level comprehension of each question or standard.

4th Grade Writing STAAR Preparation

Education Galaxy’s practice questions and assessments are aligned with the TEKS and reflect the rigor and verbiage of STAAR tests. Our writing program supports draft development as well as revising and editing practice. Our comprehensive online composition module is complete with online grading, STAAR scoring rubrics, and multiple writing prompt options. There is extensive support of oral and written conventions, handwriting, capitalization, and spelling through over 500 formative assessment items. Each item includes video instruction. Complete with a full array of 3rd grade study topics to help identify gaps and remediate when needed.

Writing Composition Practice

Assign your students writing assignments to help them practice writing literary, expository, procedural, and persuasive compositions. Here’s how it works: The teacher would select a prompt and scoring rubric (optional) to assign to students. Students would then type and submit a draft of their composition online. Then teacher reads, scores, and provides feedback to student drafts online. Next the students review feedback, edit their draft, and submit their final composition. Then the teacher would score the composition online or offline.
