Academic learning at home resources have been created to provide opportunities for students to engage in meaningful learning experience during the school closure. Below you will find a list of activities that your child can complete both independently and with your support.
Learning Logs are to be completed each day when work is done. These logs will be turned in at the end of the week to your teacher. Your teacher will be in contact with you this week. If you have any questions, please contact your teacher.

Read and write every day! Record the title of the book/text and the pages read each day in your learning log.
Learn new words. Listen and look for new words each day this week. Create a vocabulary log that includes the new word, its definition, where you read/heard it, and use it in a new sentence. Draw a picture that represents the meaning of the word - that will help you remember it. Make a goal to listen for and read for at least five new words a day. Be sure the new words come from a combination of reading and listening.
Writing Prompt: Think about reasons at-home learning is important, or valuable. Imagine that you needed to convince a classmate that there is value in learning even while at home. Write an essay defending your ideas about the importance, or value, of continuing to learn at home during this time.
