Ontario Ministry of Education: Learn at Home
Find supplementary resources for elementary and secondary students to practice math and literacy skills and learn at home.
While these materials do not replace what students have been learning at school, during this unusual time, these at-home activities offer quick and easy access to some of Ontario’s best online kindergarten to grade 12 learning resources.
TVO’s Digital Education Resources
Have been featured on the Ministry of Education’s Learn at Home site. As a result, many students have been actively using resources such as TVO Kids, TVO mPower, and TVO Mathify during the school closure.
The Educational Partnerships team from TVO has collated high quality, curriculum-connected, and free TVO digital learning resources. They can be used both to support teaching, and serve as extra supports for students, and parents and guardians.
Dreambox
We would also like to share that dreambox is offering a free 90 day trial. DreamBox is PreK-8 math solution driven by a technology that's as unique as the students and educators who need it, love it, and use it to go to the next level. Dreambox is offered to HDSB students for free until the end of August.
