Raz-Kids

The SK's have been enrolled in an online reading program called Raz-Kids.  Raz-Kids helps students improve their reading skills as they listen to a book read to them so they hear how reading should sound.  If the device they are working on has a built-in record function, they can record themselves reading the same book.  Or, students can read the book to themselves or aloud for practice.  There are interactive quizzes at the end of each book to check for understanding.

Here is how to access the website and your child's reading assignment from any device connected to the Internet:

1.  Go to www.raz-kids.com and click LOG IN.

2.  Type in the teacher's username kinggeorge and click GO.

3.  Find your child's name and/or symbol on the chart and click on that symbol.  From there your child can choose from a variety of fiction and non-fiction choices at their reading level.

If you have an iPad, you can download the free app "Learning A-Z" and access the materials from there.  The app looks like this:
