How to make the most of extended learning time

The most impactful plans will provide standards-aligned learning opportunities that are joyful, motivating, and focus on moving learning forward.

Engagement as a north star

Build learning experiences that are joyful, interactive, relevant, and help restore students’ innate curiosity and confidence in their learning.

No new tests

Use spring assessment data to understand where students are, and let them continue to show what they know by layering on formative assessments.

Focus on what students need to move forward

Accelerate learning by prioritizing just the most essential standards students will need to be successful next year. Don’t try to reteach everything that was missed.

Integrate SEL

Prioritize relationships and wellbeing for every student alongside academics to ensure students feel supported and are in the right mindset to learn.

Extended learning recommendations from the Newsela team

Speak with our team

"When I speak with districts in this moment, I encourage them to focus on giving students what they need to be successful going forward, rather than looking backward and concentrating on ‘learning loss.’ Our eyes should be on the horizon and making sure that every child has what they need to be academically and emotionally prepared for the upcoming school year. I can't stress that enough.”

Dan Cogan-Drew
Newsela Chief Academic Officer, New York, NY

“One of the best things teachers and tutors can do for students over the coming months is help them restore relationships and find joy in learning. Our content solutions can help with that, while maintaining alignment to standards. Newsela ELA, for example, makes it easy to target the standards students will need to be successful, while using high-interest, culturally relevant content as the vehicle.”

Brittany Boyd
Newsela Professional Learning, Prince George’s County, MD

“The extended learning plans that are really inspiring to me are the ones that focus on recovering the relationships, confidence, and enthusiasm that students need after a tough school year. It’s amazing what students can do when educators prioritize making learning engaging and joyful as much as they prioritize rigor.”
