Week Three of our at home free resources series covers Reading and Writing. We have tried to include various engaging options that range from in-home lessons to story time with famous figures.
As a reminder, each week, we will be providing these resource lists based on specific learning areas (Activity / Well being, Reading / Writing, Math, Languages, etc.). We hope you enjoy!
