Online Reading Classes
Whether your child is learning in-person, in a hybrid model, remotely, or being homeschooled, you might be worried that your child has lost out on important learning time during this pandemic. Many students are missing out on valuable small group reading support that they would receive during a normal school year. Winding Way Literacy’s online classes focus on reviewing and developing foundational skills to ensure future reading success. Classes are interactive on Zoom and are limited to 8 students. Classes are “drop-in” style to accommodate all of the varying schedules, so sign up for as many or as few classes as you’d like. This is a great way to supplement your current learning model and get your child the additional support they need without breaking the bank!
