RECOMMENDED RESOURCES:
At The Learning Loop, we believe learning is a partnership. The resources shared here are ones we regularly use, reference, or recommend to families and educators. They are designed to extend learning beyond sessions and provide clear, supportive guidance for helping children grow with confidence.
-
These resources support reading development through structured literacy practices. Families will find tools related to phonics, decoding, fluency, comprehension, and the Science of Reading, along with parent-friendly explanations and activities that reinforce foundational literacy skills.
-
These resources focus on building number sense, mathematical reasoning, and conceptual understanding. Families will find strategies, visual models, and hands-on tools designed to help children make sense of math rather than rely on memorization alone.
-
These resources support clear, organized writing and strong sentence construction. Families and educators will find tools that address spelling, grammar, sentence structure, and written expression using research-based approaches.
