Welcome back to another week of online learning.
I know we are all wishing we could be back together at school, but unfortunately that is not possible yet. 😢 I know you have all been doing your best work at home–I’m amazed by all the wonderful work you have been sending me–I could not be prouder of you and your families. Parents you are doing a phenomenal job–at a job that you never signed up for–so THANK YOU from all of us!! 💗💗💗
Over the weekend, you likely got an email from 
This is another reading resource I thought might be helpful. Raz Kids is like the reading groups I would do in class, while Epic! is more like the reading bags the students have full of ‘treat’ books to read. It is new to me as well and I will not be assigning books on the site–rather it is just for fun reading–or for Read to Self times. I was excited to see that they had a large variety of popular series like ‘Scaredy Squirrel‘ and ‘Diary of a Worm‘.
- The ‘For You’ section has new releases as well as any books you started to read, but did not finish.
- It has a ‘Read to Me’ section, where you can have books read aloud to you–including ‘Fancy Nancy’ and ‘Curious George‘
- In the ‘Videos’ tab you can watch videos of popular stories. (“Giggle, Giggle Quack” is narrated by country singer Randy Travis.)
- It also has a selection of Audio Books that you can listen to–like ‘Chicka Chicka 1 2 3′ (and you can follow along with a physical book if you have a copy).
My hope is this resource will expand your access to more books–similar to our visits to the school and public libraries.
Enjoy browsing through the books, and please email me if you are having trouble signing in.
