I sent this notice via email to every parent whose email address I have. Please mention it to other parents if you happen to be speaking to them.
Over the years, I have used RALLY test prep materials because they are one of the best out there, in my opinion. Once in awhile, they offer free access online.
Today, I got an email from RALLY offering free vacation access to their online reading comprehension program. This access is free until January 6th.
I have had this access a few times in the past and the children have really profited from using it.
This is the link you go to for access. http://www.
You have to enter info about the school name, state and zipcode, but no personal info.
Then you get entry to Level D which is 4th grade.
That will take you to a page where you can get instruction and practice on the following skills.
