Does your child need some active brain breaks?  We love to use GoNoodle in the classroom and now you can try it at home!

Books at your child's reading level with comprehension checks after each book.  The child should spend 10 minutes in the Level Up section.  First the child listens to the book, reads the book independently, and then checks comprehension.  If your child clicks on the speaker button or the actual question and answers in the comprehension section, it will read it to him/her.  At a certain level, it does stop doing this.
