Clowes HallMuratIMAXSymphonyIRTWalkerThese are the state standards for every grade and the resources
that you may glean from.http://www.indianastandardsresources.org/
1. When you get into this site, select a subject, like math.
2. At the top of the page, you will have to click on grade/class level.3. Again, look at the top and click on "SELECT STANDARD". Start with Standard One to see what your child needs to know for this standard.4. Have fun and look at Standard One. Click on the words "whole numbers". A page will come up with a definition of those words. Now right across from that click on "Resources". A whole line of resources will come up that you can print. Use these resources for your planning if you like. Also, they may have an activity sheet for you to print as well. You may not need a lot of textbooks. The resources are already here on this site. For math, you may want to add to those resources by using things around the house for manipulatives.
THE PUBLIC LIBRARY
When that page comes up, look to the left. It will say "Search the Kid's Catalog". In the box that says "Search Word" type in the word phonics. Look at all of the books/tapes that you can reserved/order from the library.What I have done was to initially go to the library to give the librarian my e-mail address. So when I reserve/order books/tapes online from the library , they will e-mail me to let me know that those items are in. Make sure that you set it up to have them delivered to a library that is close to you. Another wonderful thing about this system is that they will automatically send you an e-mail notice to remind you that your materials are due.LOOKING UP MATERIALS FOR YOUR CHILD
