Learning Activities

Are you looking for skills-reinforcing activities or just something fun and mentally stimulating to do? That is what you will find on this page!

We encourage your children to study their multiplication facts up to 15s, as well as becoming fluent with addition and subtraction facts to make all the more complex math processes less laborious. We also encourage students to use math game websites as a fun way to practice solving math problems.

The green Science Study Guide should live in your child's backpack, and students are encouraged to study and review regularly at home.

For more information, activities, and resources, please visit the websites on this page. The Math Resources, Elementary Science, and CFISD Extended Learning links just below will take you directly to CFISD resources.

Thank you for your support at home!
