Resources For Parents to Educate Their Children During the Quarantine

 Parents if you need help homeschooling your kids during the COVID-19 Pandemic, here are a couple of resources that may assist you in keeping their attention,

 

The Scholastic Learn At Home program offers three hours of learning per day with up to four weeks of instruction. Users are asked to choose a grade level, separated into pre-K and kindergarten, first and second grade, third through fifth grade, and sixth grade and above. 

 

The courses span the subjects of English language arts; STEM; science; social studies; and social-emotional learning.

 

The aim is for the program to help keep children academically active amid the massive school closures, said Lauren Tarshis, senior vice president and editor-in-chief/publisher of Scholastic Classroom Magazines.  Their link is https://classroommagazines.scholastic.com/support/learnathome.html
