Learning at Home Resources

Reading (and other) Resources:

Amplify Reading - https://reading.amplify.com/ - This is a NEW website that we are demoing at the Elementary School. Students have not had the ability to use it yet, as we just got our demo offer before closing. However, if you’re looking for more activities to do at home, this website offers engaging and interactive reading activities geared to your child’s needs. If you’re interested in trying this at home, please email your child's Reading teacher for your child’s login.

ReadWorks - https://www.readworks.org/ - This website has engaging texts for students to practice reading skills at home, and it’s FREE! Texts can be filtered by grade level, content, skills, etc. Some texts have options for the story to be read aloud, as well as printed. There are also options to print comprehension assessments and vocabulary work, as well as keys to make for easy checking at home.

Scholastic Resources - https://classroommagazines.scholastic.com/support/learnathome/grades-1-2.html - This website is providing FREE resources for students learning remotely or virtually at home during this time period. There are designated texts for each day, as well as activities and other websites that relate to the texts. This is an AWESOME resource. I have the link pasted here that will take you directly to the 1-2 grade page.
