Spend less time on prep and more time with your students by using more than 20 teaching activities powered by Khanmigo. Easily create rubrics, exit tickets, lesson plans, multiple choice quizzes, and more! Teachers around the country share their favorite Khanmigo teacher tools. Here are some of the most loved activities: 
 
  • Enhance your lesson plans  

“I told Khanmigo that my students love Taylor Swift. It developed a task for students to create a concert setlist where the duration of each song is given in fractions of an hour. They had to add and subtract the fractions to ensure that the total concert time met a specific limit!”  

— Instructional technology coordinator

 

  • Simplify parent communication with newsletters 

“I use Khanmigo to write notes to my parents. I used to waste so much time trying to make my tone and point come across as supportive and helpful.” 

— Third-grade teacher
