Emergency Closure Learning Activities

The Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) team has planned for days when in-person instruction may not be possible. Our goal is to support the continuity of learning for our students.  The learning activities provided  below are listed by grade level and language (English, Spanish, Amharic and Arabic). The learning opportunities provide students with practice and apply key academic skills and promote movement, self-expression, creativity, civic engagement and language development. This packet includes Learning Board Activities. 

Students should complete five activities each day. Students should circle the activities on the learning board for each activity they complete to help them keep track. Students should share/review their choices with an adult. Students should submit their work to their teacher when they return to school for attendance-taking purposes. If there is an activity on a given day that your child is not interested in or does not have materials for, you may replace it with a choice from a different day on the learning board. 

If you would like to access additional extension activities, select from the Family Learning Resources Page list included in this packet and visit the ACPS website for even more activities.
