This is a fabulous K-8 math resource that normally has a fee. Right now, they are offering a 90 day membership free. Using this resource would be good practice for students in grades 9 and 10 students to brush up on the basics or to support a younger sibling in the house.
A great place to receive math enrichment. Activities are interactive and the problem of the week could be fun to solve with a friend online!
This is a fantastic K-8 resource to support reading. Normally there is a fee for a membership but right now, the rest of the school year is free. This site has levelled books with audio and comprehension quizzes. This resource is also great for French students since they have levelled reading books that would work for core French or French immersion.
Do not forget about the wealth of resources our school library has! Our library has audio and e-books and, if you click on "online research" on the left hand side, you can access many useful databases when you are logged into Chrome using your DSBN credentials. Passwords to some of the databases should be posted by your teachers in their Google Classroom or on their D2L pages!
Use your library card to access online resources. E-books, audio books, and more!
Reading for interest and pleasure is a great way to occupy your time!
During this time of schools being closed in Ontario, Nelson is offering students, families and teachers free access to textbooks online across many subject areas. This will definitely support learning at home!
