Dear Parents,
I’ve listed websites that will help your child with math, spelling, and reading. They are allowed to include using the reading websites as part of their 20 minutes a day requirement. Please post this page by the computer, tablet, or bring it with you to the public library. Use your local library card (Acorn, Crestwood, and Midlothian) to create a Media on Demand account for free ebooks. Here’s what they can do at home or the library to prepare for this school year:
Set a goal for each month! Enjoy the rest of the school year!

Please watch the shows first to make sure they have your approval.
You may also search websites for videos which cover the skills we are working on but please be very careful and make sure you view the video in its entirety before you let your child watch.
