Practice That Makes It Stick
They learn it in class — it locks in here.
Upwardly Math isn't about hooking kids on a game; it's about helping them get comfortable with the work. We provide high-quality practice problems that give students the repetition they need to build confidence. It's about creating small, safe opportunities to make mistakes, learn from them, and truly master what they're being taught.

Built for Both Sides of the Table
Every practice session has two people who matter: the student doing the work, and the adult who cares how it’s going. We built for both — and treat them differently on purpose.
Clarity and control
- A growing, Common Core–aligned library
- Assign a Learning Plan, or build your own
- See exactly how they’re doing — and their real work
- Switch the XP Shop, or any single item, on or off
Practice they’ll actually do
- A game-like home with a clear path to what’s next
- The Weekly Race — a fresh start every Monday
- Trophies for streaks, mastery, and showing real work
- The XP Shop — spend earned XP on items that reward the right habits
- Help the moment they’re stuck — no shame in it
Clarity, Control, and Content You Can Trust
You’re the one steering. Here’s what helps you find the right practice, see how it’s landing, and stay in control of every detail.
A Growing Library, Built Around What Families Need
Browse 6,497+ questions across 567 practice units for Grades K–8. Find exactly what your student is working on this week — or let a Learning Plan do the choosing for you.
- Browse by Grade or Topic: Filter the catalog to zero in on the exact concept your student is practicing right now.
- Common Core Aligned: Every unit is built around real curriculum standards — no fluff, no filler.
- Support That Fades On Purpose: Early units lean on visual models to build confidence; later units deliberately use fewer, so finishing one proves your student actually understands the concept rather than reading the picture.
- Read Aloud: Every question — and its Help content — can be played out loud for Grades K–5, so practice isn't gated on reading skills. Students use it as much or as little as they like.
- Always Growing: We're adding new units all the time, driven directly by what families request.
- Don't see what you need? Submit a request through our feedback form. We prioritize work based on what parents need right now.

A Guided Path Through the Year
The hardest part of independent practice isn't the math — it's knowing where to start. Upwardly Math's Learning Plans give your student a structured path so they always know what's next, where they've been, and how far they have to go.
- Official Upwardly Math Plans: Expert-sequenced paths aligned to Common Core — by grade level or topic. Choose one and the path is set.
- Build Your Own: Pick your units, set the order, assign it to your student. Perfect for parents who know exactly what their child needs.
- Create Your Own units: Go further and build custom Practice sets, Quizzes, or Tests from any question in the catalog — targeting exactly what your child needs.
- Student-Facing View: Students see their plan as a journey — where they've been, where they are, and what's coming next.

Insights in Plain English, One Click to Act
Upwardly IQ reads how practice is really going and writes you a short Brief — like a teacher who knows your kid. When units are ready for a look back, it offers to build a review quiz from your student's own work: look it over first, have it assigned for you, or save it for later. IQ suggests. You decide. Free for a limited time, on every plan.
Meet Upwardly IQWe made the habits you want genuinely fun for them.
Most apps gamify screen time. We point every reward at a behavior you actually care about — showing work, careful accuracy, asking for help the right way. That’s the bridge between what you want and what your student wants. Here’s what it looks like for them.
Practice They’ll Actually Want to Do
A home that feels like a game, a friendly race that resets every Monday, and trophies worth earning — every bit of it pointed at a habit that makes them a stronger math student.
The Student Experience, Up Close
One piece at a time: the home they land in, the race they run, and the rewards — every one of them pointed at a habit that makes them a stronger math student.
A home that feels like an adventure, not an assignment list.
Students land in a home built around three zones: their path — this week’s plan, always showing what’s next; their map — the whole curriculum as friendly topic shelves; and their personal Winner’s Circle. Progress is visible everywhere, and the next step is one click away.
- Gentle accountability: a missed assignment says "catch up when you’re ready" — never shame.
- Momentum at the door: streaks, progress, and this week’s plan greet them the moment they log in.
“Turn math homework night from frustration and fighting into focused practice they might actually enjoy.”
