June 2026: Keep student safe, track their growth, and provide better follow-ups

Our June 2026

This month, we've made it easier to keep students safe, track their growth, and get insights from Sparky. You can now customize moderation with flexible grade-level coverage and explore a new Alignment tab showing how students develop soft skills and see those skills highlighted on individual student profiles. Plus, Sparky has a refreshed look.

Check out our June updates below ๐Ÿ‘‡

Creating a follow-up activity just got easier. When you create a follow-up from an existing activity, Sparky now remembers the context, including the original activity name, Sparky's role, grade level, and guidelines. No more re-entering details manually.

This makes it simpler to build on what students have already learned and target specific skills that need more practice. Learn more about follow-up activities.
