Home Learning Resources for March 16th-20th, 2020

Learning Activities for Monday, March 16th

 

Good Morning Families! 

The activities for Monday, March 16th are below. The second grade teachers will be collaborating as a team today to create further activities to support learning at home as we move through these next few weeks. Thank you for partnering with us to support your children in learning even though they are not in a school setting.

Today's Learning Activities:

Math (login.i-ready.com)

Please log in to iReady with your school email address and password. Please complete:
1. The teacher-assigned iReady lesson for the day (click on the blue box on the left side of the screen.)
2. 1 lesson from My Path (the green box on the right side of the screen.)
3. 10 minutes of Learning Games.
 
Raz-Kids (kidsa-z.com)
Please log in and read your assigned book for the day. This can be located under the “My Assignments” rocket ship under the Reading tab.  If your child would like to read more than one book, they’re more than welcome to do so!
 
Please note: The books under the “My Assignments” tab have been assigned at your child’s specific reading level. Raz-Kids also uses a slightly different book leveling system than the Fountas and Pinnell Reading Assessment. Please check your email for a helpful correlation chart.
 
As always, please feel free to email us with any questions! We are always happy to help.
 
All the best,
Lindsey and Emily
