Lexia Usage at Home (DO)
We are asking for there to be no home usage at all this year. If students or classes are quarantined, teachers can download skill builders from Lexia to push out in SeeSaw as a supplement until they get back in the building.
Please make sure you mark any lessons you deliver as "delivered". They will be saved. These lessons can count as Tier I interventions for any student you may refer to RTI.

- Lexia Home Use: Situations may arise that result in students or classes being quarantined. Please remember that we are not recommending any home use for Lexia at this time. If needed, individualized Lexia Skillbuilders and Lexia Lessons can be given to students as a supplement until they are able to return face to face.
