How Does it Work?

Ignite™ by Hatch is fully integrated with GOLD® by Teaching Strategies. As children play, data is collected on their progress and automatically sent to GOLD® as documentation in a child's portfolio. Ignite™ provides objective and ongoing documentation, accurately scored for 40 of the 75 Objectives and Dimensions in GOLD® by Teaching Strategies.

"The games and lessons are brightly colored, fun, and keep their attention. It is an extra tool to keep track of where my students are academically. It also aligns with TS Gold which we use to assess our students. Ignite reports have been a tremendous help to see where my students are struggling so that I am able to help them with those lessons."

Hatch has allowed me to put down my observation clipboard that I used to walk around with regularly and engage in more meaningful ways with my students. Knowing that Hatch is inputting data directly into Teaching Strategies GOLD lessens that burden for me and creates great opportunity to improve teacher-student interpersonal connections.
