I use these resources for quick access during Zoom instruction. My students enjoy them independently via Seesaw.

As we approach a return to in-person instruction, I foresee using them in the classroom as a choice menu for our Student of the Day. They will provide thematic enrichment and supplemental activities, as well. The home-school connection is so important, so students will continue to have access at home.
