Learn-at-home educational materials for kids and adults

KET forum offers families advice for juggling life at home

In response to the need for at-home learning resources while schools and many workplaces are closed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, KET has created an online toolkit for families and is offering free access to its GED ® preparation and workplace instruction courses for adults learners.

The kids’ toolkit provides families with educational videos, interactive games and instructional resources all tailored to specific grade levels: PreK-third grade, grades 4-8, and grades 9-12. The toolkit is available at KET.org/learnathome.

Adult learners will have free access, through April 30, to KET’s FastForward and Workplace Essential Skills online courses. FastForward prepares users for the GED test and other high-school equivalency exams. And Workplace Essential Skills offers instruction on the language and math skills needed to succeed in many of Kentucky’s high-demand career fields, such as IT, construction and marketing. Learn more at KET.org/adulted.

With the onset of COVID-19, families across Kentucky are grappling with a new reality—how to balance work, childcare, and self-care needs. Extended school closures have moved academics from the classroom to the living room, leaving caregivers to adjust. Hosted by KET’s Renee Shaw, this live forum will bring experts from education and healthcare fields together to answer questions and share practical advice and resources for families.

Members of the student news team at E.P. Ward Elementary in Fleming County showed off their new media arts production kit, courtesy of KET. Schools that attend workshops in the KET Media Lab in Lexington during the 2019-2020 school year receive the production kit to help them outfit a media lab in their school. The production kits, which were provided

by The Virginia Clark Hagan Charitable Foundation, Inc., include a KET Media Arts Tookit, a green screen, microphone, tripod and more.
