Last Day of School
Digital Learning at Home... Week 3 complete!
Here's to hoping everyone had a relaxing and satisfying spring break! Our week off of school may not have been our original plans but to be home, safe, and healthy is all we can ask for and be thankful for at this moment in time. Remember that keeping your child on a daily routine (Monday through Friday) is VERY important and will definitely make things easier for you. PLEASE make sure your child is logging-on to eCLASS every day and doing their assignments, that counts as their attendance!
Parents, remind your child to log-on to Imagine Learning Language and Literacy. Please contact your child's teacher with any questions regarding this.
Below you will find some great links to help keep your child's mind and body stay active! Take advantage of all the FREE resources now being offered!
With so many kids at home, we want to keep good energy going! GoNoodle Good Energy at Home is a FREE resource for ALL ages! It offers free movement, yoga, and mindfulness videos, downloadable extra-curricular activities, and off-screen home activities.
Harper Collins Publishers brings to you Top Storytime and Interactive Videos for Children.
Shel Silverstein Resources: Poet Trees, Read Aloud Videos, Activities and More!
Make the FREE Daily Kids Workouts on YouTube with Joe Wicks a part of your child's daily routine. His workouts are kid friendly, will last 30 minutes, won't need much space so they can be done indoors, and will be every weekday starting at 9:00 AM on YouTube.
For as long as schools are closed, Amazon Audible Stories is FREE! Kids can instantly stream incredible stories from across six different languages.
“The world is going through a period of crisis, but whether we look at it as a crisis or as an opportunity to reshape our thinking, depends on us. So use this period as a lesson on how to live life with a concern for all of humankind.” - Abhijit Naskar
