Choose your teaching context
Confirm your language program, learner needs, class sizes and subscription scope. Schools, boards, districts and higher education can discuss implementation with Smash.
A clear start. A confident classroom.
Bring your language curriculum, differentiated instruction and progress tracking into one teaching routine. Start with your learners, then build a rollout that fits your school.
From first conversation to everyday teaching.
Set up your classes
Arrange teacher and student access with Smash. Students can use school-approved account identifiers; personal identifying information is not required to access the platform.
Use placement results
Use diagnostic and placement tests to understand starting points and inform differentiated instruction. Teachers can assign different activities to students within the same class.
Build your classroom routine
Preview lessons, teach with the main curriculum and use supplemental materials for reinforcement or extension. Review progress reports to decide what comes next.
One curriculum. More than one way to teach.
Before class
Preview content and select lessons or activities for the whole class, a group or an individual learner. Set mission start dates and due dates to organize the work.
During class
Combine teacher-led instruction and classroom interaction with level-appropriate independent practice. Use guided oral activities to move learners toward meaningful communication.
Between lessons
Review activity results, written work and oral practice. Use detailed reports to identify where learners need scaffolding, further practice or a new challenge.
Support for getting started and moving forward.
Smash offers setup guidance, training, demonstrations and practical teaching guidance. Discuss the support included in your plan and the needs of your team when arranging implementation.
Use the devices your learners have.
Smash can be accessed on computers, tablets and iPhones. An internet connection is required. For a school rollout, ask us to review your device, browser and account setup with you.
Getting started: common questions.
Teaching & assignments
Does Smash replace teacher-led instruction?
Smash supports it. The full curriculum can structure whole-class teaching while differentiated activities and supplemental materials address individual needs.
Can teachers preview content before assigning it?
Yes. Teachers can review lessons and activities before choosing what to assign.
Can students receive different assignments within the same class?
Yes. Teachers can assign different work within one class, using placement results and classroom observations to guide differentiation.
Devices & updates
Which devices can learners use?
Computers, tablets and iPhones, with an internet connection. Contact Smash to check your school’s specific device and browser setup.
Are curriculum and software updates included?
Standard updates to the curriculum and platform within your subscribed program are included during your active subscription, unless your plan or agreement specifies otherwise. Any separately priced offering will be identified in the applicable offer or agreement.
Learning records
What should our school know about learning records at the end of a subscription?
Contact Smash before your subscription ends to discuss any report or record needs. Student accounts and associated learning data are deleted from active systems annually in August; earlier deletion can be requested through the school. Protected backups follow the regular retention schedule, and any agreed requirements are set out in your school’s agreement.
