Jones<\/u>, <u>Series of Unfortunate Events<\/u>, <u>Chronicles of Narnia<\/u> and many, many more. A list of quizzes that St. Brigid owns are at this link.\u00a0 If you and your student want to find a book at another library to use with our program, just check the list, which is in alphabetical order by title.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Math Skills<\/h4>\n<p>For the very young child, math skills can be developed\u00a0 by playing simple board games like Chutes and Ladders, Candy Land, and the like.\u00a0 Counting and one to one correspondence are learned in these games.\u00a0 Games that utilize number cards as the way to move ahead also help a child recognize the numbers.\u00a0 For children in school who need to practice the math facts, two great sites for this practice are:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aaamath.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.AAAmath.com<br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facts4me.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.facts4me.com<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1486007987080{margin-bottom: 25px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;background-color: #f8d401 !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: white\">Current News<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"mailto:btalley@stbrigidxenia.org\">Email Mrs. Talley<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1486003567865{margin-top: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 35px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1486003553757{margin-bottom: 100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text] Mrs. Bethany Talley &#8211; Intervention Specialist [\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;small&#8221; position=&#8221;left&#8221; color=&#8221;#f8d401&#8243; thickness=&#8221;3&#8243; width=&#8221;35&#8243; up=&#8221;15&#8243; down=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1486016601271{margin-top: 35px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;] Links of Interest to Parents and Students &nbsp; Reading Skills Reading is a skill that must be practiced like any sport is practiced.\u00a0 Help your student spend time reading everyday and model&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"spay_email":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/553"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=553"}],"version-history":[{"count":22,"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/553\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3242,"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/553\/revisions\/3242"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
