This is a challenging time – we’d like to help
With everyone dutifully practicing social distancing and staying home, we have heard many requests for resources to help families and caregivers as they transition into a reality where the lines are blurred and daily activities now include children at every turn.
From what our team has found online (including great resources from the Anita Zucker Center, CEEDAR Center, Lastinger Center and the UF Literacy Institute) we’ve begun to compile this list of resources below. This is by no means an exhaustive list and we are not endorsing any of these resources outside of those from UF, but we hope this helps. In all kinds of weather…
Resources include:
- Talking to your child about COVID-19
- General education services
- Science focused materials
- Math focused materials
- Literacy/language/reading/writing focused
- Social studies focused materials
- Arts and performance materials
- Activities
- Read-alouds
- Social-emotional skills
