Enrichment Resources and Digital Tools
The DPS Elementary Literacy and Math Sites are designed to provide resources, tips, and articles to support families and students at home. We have updated both sites to support families at home with eLearning. As parents and teachers reach out with specific requests, additional resources will be added to the sites. Our sites are located on your school’s home page under academics.
From the Darien Public Library: We've gone fully digital. While Darien Library is closed until further notice , we have a trove of great resources to keep you informed and entertained.
From youcubed: Dr Jo Boaler is a Professor of Mathematics Education at Stanford University and the faculty director of youcubed. In these times of uncertainty, youcubed is here to help students at home continue to explore and learn maths in rich and creative ways. We are collecting here modified versions of our tasks to be more home-friendly, as well as some new explorations designed for learners at home.
From The Math Learning Center: The Math Learning Center (MLC) is providing free resources for all students to use independently or with support from family members or educators.
