This once-a-year math grant gives outstanding teachers full access to Reflex or Frax ($1,800+ value!) for the entire school year.
The math foundations developed in elementary school have the potential to unlock advanced success for your students. Math fact fluency can free up students’ working memory, and it’s one of the strongest predictors of standardized test performance. And what about fractions? Research shows that knowledge of fractions significantly impacts students’ understanding of algebra and advanced math.
Unlock Math Success
Unlock teachers’ and students’ math potential and give them the keys to math success with an ExploreLearning Math Grant. Selected teachers in grades 2-6 will receive free access to Reflex (for math facts) or Frax (for fractions) for the 2025-2026 school year to use in their classrooms (up to 40 students).
Teachers must apply directly for the Grant Program. Administrators cannot apply. Up to two qualified educators per school may participate. Limited grant spots are available, so encourage your staff to apply early by sending them the teacher grant information.

Reflex: The Key to Math Fact Fluency
Adaptive and individualized, Reflex is the most effective and fun system for mastering basic facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
- Engaging and motivating. Reflex continuously monitors math performance to help students build math strength at their own pace, while fun games and rewards boost motivation and confidence.
- Student success. Built on a fact family approach, Reflex meets all students to develop fact fluency speed and accuracy. Across all achievement levels, students who used Reflex with high fidelity outscored their peers.
- Classroom support: Reflex includes intuitive and powerful reporting for teachers, schools, and districts to monitor student usage and celebrate progress.
- Response to Intervention (RTI): Reflex helps students at all intervention tiers succeed.

Frax: The Key to Fractions Understanding
Frax stops the fraction struggle through an adaptive, game-based system that helps students build a strong understanding of fractions for ongoing success in higher mathematics.
- Foundational instruction. Students work extensively with length models and number lines to understand fractions as numbers first.
- Research-based success. Across all achievement levels, students who use Frax meet or exceed growth benchmarks at significantly higher rates.
- Engaging and effective. Each Frax mission features game-based challenges that build understanding while motivating students with rewards for effort and progress.
- Classroom support. With Frax offline activities, comprehensive support materials, and real-time reporting, educators can quickly discover when students are struggling and how to help.

Unlock Achievement with Reflex and Frax
Examples of real-life success.
- A two-year study found that 2nd graders who scored two or more grade levels below their peers in math improved by an average of 11 percentile points when they used Reflex, compared to 5 percentile points in non-users. When those same Reflex users advanced to 3rd grade and used Frax, students were 2.5x more likely to reach on-grade-level math proficiency by the end of 3rd grade compared to non-users.
- Students using Reflex and Frax experienced larger score gains than non-users, and the most academically at-risk demonstrated even greater growth. Users were 60% more likely to exceed or meet typical growth goals and 100% more likely to exceed or meet stretch growth goals.
- Teachers gave Reflex an average rating of 9.1 out of 10. Nearly 99% of teachers saw increased attention, engagement, and student motivation with Reflex.
- Students who used Reflex with fidelity were 7.4x more likely to reach 100% fluency than those with low Reflex usage. These students also showed significantly higher growth on NWEA MAP Growth assessments.
- ESSA Tier 2 research found Frax was 3x more effective than the average educational intervention for 3rd graders and 5x more effective for 4th graders.
