How long are the on-demand videos?

There are assignments and activities your child can complete after the video, to provide additional support and practice to reinforce skills taught in the videos. Videos can also be watched more than once to help reinforce information as well.
How much time does the program take each day?
- Each day, your child will have access to four on-demand videos. They include: Literacy and Language, Readiness and Writing, and Math. The fourth video varies between Oral Language (Vocabulary building program), Science and Social Studies. The online content of the program should take around 90 minutes. If you add on the live classes, that would include an additional 30 minutes of learning. Most in-person Pre-K programs allow for a lot of interactive play and learning and direct instruction is typically 90-120 minutes each day.
