Students receive lesson recommendations based on their writing performance and can select and view lessons of their choosing. Teachers can preview lessons and assign specific lessons to individual students or an entire class. 

Lessons are interactive, requiring students to drag, drop, click, or answer questions as they practice a writing skill. If a student responds to an interaction incorrectly, they may correct their response. Lessons do not provide a grade or a score.
