NYCDOE: The materials on the Learn at Home pages are designed to provide supplementary learning resources to students in the event that students may need to be home from school. We encourage you to use this time to continue your student’s learning while they are at home. To help students engage in educational material, we have shared the resources below for students in all grades, from Early Learn through elementary and middle school, and for high school. These materials do not replace what your child has been learning at school, but during this unusual time it is important that students continue to read, write, do social studies and science activities, and work on math problems.
The materials on the grade specific pages below include:
Suggested daily study schedules
Guides and materials for instructional activities
Recommended educational television shows
Links to a variety of books, magazines, and websites on a wide range of topics that appeal to children at all ages
