WHRO Public Media – Education Resources For Families

March 25, 2020

WHRO Public Media

As we have all become homeschoolers in a short period of time, many of us have been searching for online resources to help us as we navigate the new role of teacher/parent.

During the COVID-19 shutdown, WHRO Public Media in Norfolk is providing free access to their high-quality online courses for teachers and students everywhere. You can access them here: https://digitallearning.whro.org

They are also providing an additional learning resource – eMediaVA, free to all Virginia public, private & home schooled educators, students and parents. That resource is available here: https://www.emediava.org

Find out more about these resources and how they can support your teaching (and learning) at https://whro.org/kids-family
