As you may have noticed, your child came home with a Zip Loc bag with a book and a card. On this card is your child’s username and password to access plenty of online learning. As a parent of a Dearborn Public School student, I have viewed and witnessed the paid programs as beneficial to allowing your child to learn and grow. Please explore the options from MyOn and MobyMax.
MyOn is an online library where your child is turning the pages of a story that is being read to them. The best part of it is it highlights the words as its being read to them. This does multiple things for a beginning reader:
1. It models directionality left to right
2. It practices return sweep when reading a line.
3. It models what good reading sounds like and looks like
4. It has comprehension questions in the end
5. It provides an arrangement of titles to keep them interested in reading
and much more!!!
Moby Max is a program that offers multiple training games for your child. It has all subjects areas from reading, basic math facts and science and social studies concepts. All in which are engaging and fun.
Check them out and enjoy, courtesy of Dearborn Public Schools.
Make sure your reading with your child for 20 minutes every day!!! Reading log coming home at the end of this week for the month of October.
