A wonderful FREE resource for parents who have also become teachers

A lot of parents, myself included, have recently added another title to their repertoire: teacher.

With the likelihood that schools will remain closed through the end of the school year, families and educators are facing an unprecedented challenge to educate and entertain kids and maintain social connection, and to make sure that all students have access to online learning and engagement. Wide Open School aims to make learning from home an experience that is accessible to all and that truly engages kids and teachers, relieves family stress, and restores community in the face of long-term school closures and other shutdowns due to the coronavirus pandemic. 

Wide Open School Partners Include American Federation of Teachers, Amplify, Apple, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Comcast, Google, Head Start, Khan Academy, National Geographic, Noggin, PBS, Salesforce, Scholastic, Sesame Workshop, Time for Kids, YouTube, XQ Institute, and Zoom Video Communications, Inc.

With tools like a daily schedule, exercises, live events, “field trips,” and of course math, reading and writing, science, social studies, art, music, life skills, emotional well-being and even special needs programs, this free resource is priceless.
