Lexia and Dreambox
If you are interested in working on more academic skills and content with your child at home, Lexia and Dreambox are perfect if you have internet access.
Dreambox and Lexia are an easy way for your child to practice at home at their individual skill level! Research shows that students show academic progress in math and literacy skills and are prepared for first grade with the use of Lexia and Dreambox.
Please be sure your child is completing the activities on their own. It is very important that we receive accurate information so that we know how to help your child in the classroom.
