Thank you for all families that came to Learning Conferences!!!
As many parents asked about different tools and websites to support their child at home, I've listed a few apps and websites that we use in our classroom. If you child doesn't remember their passwords, we can take a picture with Seesaw to share with you.

Prodigy Game
Prodigy unlocks the power of game-based learning and is designed to be engaging for children. The application actively adapts to keep each child’s learning at his/her own pace, automatically identifies knowledge gaps and scaffolds them through difficult concepts. It is designed to ensure children master fundamental math skills, build fluency, understand complex word problems and develop deep conceptual understanding through the use of virtual manipulatives.https://play.prodigygame.com/
