The kids will be home for at least the next five weeks because of COVID-19. The teachers were not prepared for the closure to happen, so we have very limited work coming from school, at least for now.
But that doesn't mean we want kids to spend their days on their electronic devices and watching YouTube videos.
We want them to keep learning.
Here are some educational resources that kids of all ages could use at home. There are great online programs, as well as some awesome printable websites, and local-lots of talented local sources.
Many of these sites contain mostly worksheets. For well-rounded online lessons and interactive activities organized by grade level, you can also start with iXL and Khan Academy.
