Accessibility

This website offers accessibility to all users in a number of ways. However, due to the wide range of activities in the lessons, teachers should consider partnering students who require assistive technologies with other students in the class.

A skip navigation function allows users to jump to the main content area on any page.

Images have alternative tags that describe what the image illustrates.

Videos provide a closed caption button.

Worksheet PDFs are offered in an accessible version.

Screen reader users are strongly encouraged to use the latest version of NVDA or JAWS. Accessibility instructions for screen reader users:

  • Begin reading each page by pressing CTRL+Home.
  • Use the Say All keyboard commands to hear the entire page read before trying the interactive.
  • After the page has been read, select CTRL+Home again to move back to the top of the page and then do the interactive portions of the lesson.

This site contains links to external websites. We cannot guarantee that all linked sites are accessible and recommend students who need assistive technology partner with others.

Technical Note

Not all interactives are available to users who need assistive technologies.

The following will not work for screen readers and/or keyboard-only users:

  • Highlighter tool (For activities requiring a highlighter tool, we offer a downloadable PDF so students can partner and do a paper-based activity.)
  • Line reader
