READ, WRITE, ROAR! LEARNING ADVENTURES

Read and Write with Michigan Teachers and the Literacy Essentials

Read, Write, ROAR! is an English Language Arts program for preschool through 6th Grade learners. The Michigan Learning Channel partnered with MAISA and real Michigan teachers to create educational video lessons and corresponding activity sheets that align to Michigan teaching standards and the Literacy Essentials. Each lesson has a list of standards included as an easy reference for educators and homeschoolers.

These lessons and activity sheets helps students build literacy skills through word-building lessons, read-alouds, writing exercises, exploring informational text, and more. Parents and educators can use these resources to build on what students are covering in school, as extra practice on key topics, and as fun activities to break up the day.
