A little bit of everything choices

1. Play around on Adventure Academy Due to school closures, Adventure Academy is offering FREE memberships until the end of the school year. This is a GREAT program that allows your child to wander around a virtual Academy that is filled with lots of amazing educational games and activities that cover pretty much every subject from Language Arts and Math to Social Studies and Science. (I played around on it a bit, and I loved it!) The game does have some system requirements and it takes up some space on your device, but here’s how to download it for FREE:

HOW TO GET ADVENTURE ACADEMY

*Click on this link:https://www.adventureacademy.com/redeem/

*Enter this School Code: SCHOOL1446

*Click “REDEEM”

*Create an account using your personal email address and a password of your choice. (Where it says “School Director” just type in Mr. Kraye)

*It will then ask you to download the game and you’re ready to play! (This game does take up a lot of space, but it’s a lot more interactive and engaging if you’re child is starting to tire of Freckle and I-Ready.!)

*Using the log-in you created, you can now play on your personal device or computer.

2. Play a game on recess.com If Adventure Academy won’t run on your computer, or if it just takes up too much space, log onto Room Recess and let your child play any of the educational games on there that also cover pretty much every subject from Language Arts and Math to Social Studies and Science. Now downloading or space needed!

https://www.roomrecess.com/pages/45.html

3. Escape a room on BreakoutEDU - This one is PERFECT for kids and families who are feeling trapped at home while on quarantine…but be warned, the games on this website are a real challenge! Based on an escape room, the puzzles are different, immersive, and difficult, but they still manage to be a lot of fun!!!
