Lakeshore Learning Partners with MarcoPolo Learning on new iWonder & Learn family engagement kits
Lakeshore Learning, a provider of teaching supplies, has announced a new partnership with MarcoPolo Learning, which provides educational games and videos.
The iWonder & Learn kits provide a year’s worth of guided learning experiences with hands-on learning materials and a subscription to the MarcoPolo World School app. The app includes guided lessons that align with the materials provided with durable materials suitable for multiple uses.
All content is provided in both English and Spanish, aiming to support diverse families and underserved communities.
"Lakeshore is proud to partner with MarcoPolo Learning to support family engagement," comments Dr. Shannon Ayers, Lakeshore's Custom Solutions Sales Director. "We know that increased engagement brings so many benefits to children, families and educators, and we're thrilled for this new opportunity to foster learning and make a difference in students' learning."
By combining the digital curriculum with the open-ended materials, the iWonder & Learn kits aim to support family engagement, driving academic and social-emotional growth.
"The iWonder & Learn kits fill a real gap in family engagement tools," adds Dr. Nermeen Dashoush, Chief Academic Officer at MarcoPolo Learning and Clinical Associate Professor of Early Childhood Education at Boston University. "They offer a research-backed solution that's easy to use and thoughtfully designed to support the diverse realities of families today."
