Each student is different and therefore has their own unique needs and preferences for their learning. As an educator, you also have your own needs and preferences for teaching. There are online resources that strategize with you and your student to best reach your educational goals, working together. The following resources provide support for both you and your student as you seek to find the best methods for learning.
1. PowerMyLearning
PowerMyLearning is an online platform that supports educators through a framework that seeks to create a relationship between students, educators, and families to work together to reach a common educational goal. PowerMyLearning believes that a student’s success in their academics significantly increases when families, students, and educators work together. Although the site offers in-person training to teachers on methods and strategies, they also offer online games and resources that are also helpful for students who need support in areas of their studies.
2. Project Gutenburg
Project Gutenburg is an online resource for students that provides over 60,000 free ebooks that can be downloaded on a computer, kindle, tablet, or phone. Project Gutenberg specializes in old literature and books where the US copyright has expired. This is a wonderful resource for your student to continue reading without the cost of renting or buying. It is also helpful when facing time pressure for a school deadline.
3. How to Smile
Howtosmile is a free online site designed to support the learning of STEM subjects. Designed for a non-classroom setting, howtosmile seeks to provide a full learning experience by working with museums, zoos, the outdoors, aquaria, and more. Both virtual and physical lessons are available through activities, printable lesson plans, or interactive games.
I hope these resources sparked ideas or provided additional support for you as you begin the school year. Please contact us at info@onedayenrichment.com if you have any resources you would like us to add to this list!
