Overview The value of learning remotely is that learning can and should occur based on a

family’s need and during times that are most convenient for them. Our goal is to keep students engaged in continuous learning throughout the day. When considering a schedule that works for your family, keep in mind that the time spent on learning matters more than the time of day in which that learning occurs.

The suggested daily minutes per subject in the chart below can be used to help guide families in determining a schedule that will best suit their needs that reflects approximately 3 hours of learning time. A daily schedule can be created by families with the assumption that if a student is engaged in a particular task that takes longer than the given time on a daily schedule, flexibility is reasonable so long as by the end of the week there is evidence that students have put forth their best effort to meet the weekly requirements.

This At-Home Activity packet includes two supports for independent reading. These supports can be used alongside any reading the student does.

The Word Learning Routine Bookmark provides a reminder of concrete steps to discover the meaning of unknown words and phrases.

The Reading BINGO card offers a set of activities to support independent reading. The activities encourage the student to share reading with others, write in response to reading, and build curiosity about words and topics from their reading. Each time the student reads, they can choose one activity and mark the square. Once they mark five in a row they will get B-I-N-G-O!

Word Learning Routine

Reading

Word Learning Routine Bookmark Help your student learn new words while reading!

As the student reads with you or independently, they will likely encounter unknown words or phrases. Pausing to focus on these words can support comprehension and expands the student’s vocabulary. • Use the Word Learning Routine to give the student concrete ways to determine how to find the meanings of unknown words and phrases.

• Encourage the student to record new words they encounter on the back of the bookmark.

• Celebrate all the new words the student discovers!

Grades K–1 Writing and LanguageStudent At-Home Activity Packet 3

This At-Home Activity Packet includes writing and language activities. We recommend that the student complete one lesson each day.

Children will need the support of an adult or older student to complete these lessons unless they can read and write independently. Most of the prompts in the beginning of the packet offer to have the student write or draw a response. This is to allow flexibility for different ages and abilities. Please direct the student accordingly for what will best fit their needs. For those working on writing tasks, it is not as important for the student to have correct spelling as it is for them to clearly communicate their thoughts. You can guide the student to get their thoughts on paper, but try not to let them get stuck on making sure each word is spelled correctly.

Encourage the student to do the best they can with this content. The most important thing is that they continue to work on their writing and language skills.
