Want a way for your student to learn during screen time?  Help them get on LEXIA! Lexia is a computer based program that all students use at St. Albans City School. This program supports their learning in many areas of reading.  How to access Lexia from home: Go to our school website https://www.maplerun.org/o/sacs  Click on the MORE dropdown menu Click on ENRICHMENT Click on Lexia Core5 (grades K-4) or Lexia PowerUp (grades 5-8) Enter your student’s username and password (sent home with student) OR Go to www.lexiacore5.com (grades K-4) Or www.lexiapowerup.com (grades 5-8) You may need to enter your student’s teacher’s email address. Enter your student’s username and password (sent home with student) Tips for engagement: Check in to see how many units they’ve earned. Sit with them so they can show you what they are learning. Compromise; if they spend 15 minutes on Lexia, then they can earn time on an app or site of their choice. Tell them when they come back to school, their teachers will see how much time they’ve spent learning! Remind them that they’re working toward leveling up! If you have any questions, please email Angie Fitzgerald (Literacy Interventionist Leader) at afitzgerald@maplerun.org
