As a parent, I'm also high fiving Scholastics! The educational company has launched a “Learn at Home” website that has daily courses for students from Pre-kindergarten to grades 6 and higher.
Scholastic’s learning plans cover all the subjects your student would be taking at school.
“As more and more teachers, students, and families around the world are affected by the coronavirus, our priority is to support them in the best way we know how — by providing them with rich stories and meaningful projects that will keep kids academically active,” Lauren Tarshis, senior vice president, and editor-in-chief of Scholastic Classroom Magazines said.
The website has been divided into four sections based on grade level, currently with five days’ worth of content. An additional 15 days of content is on the way.
Per other news outlets, the courses provide approximately three hours of learning per day, including writing and research projects, virtual field trips, and geography challenges.
The educational company has launched and it will remain free and open indefinitely, says Scholastic.
