Iowa PBS, COVID-19, Educational Resources and Upcoming Events

Spring arrived this week, and families with students on school break learned classes will not resume as expected. In light of these cancellations due to growing concerns about the spread of COVID-19, Iowa PBS has collected a variety of resources for families and caregivers. All of these resources are available online.

Iowa PBS Education is hosting a Virtual Learning Camp on Facebook beginning March 23. Families from across the state can keep their children's skills sharp through a guided online learning camp.

Parents and caregivers can also visit iowapbs.org to find information on discussing coronavirus with children and educational games and activities to play with children during school closures.

And PBS LearningMedia has created a collection of videos, lesson plans and activities that support learning at home.

In addition, many of Iowa PBS's upcoming events have been postponed or canceled, either by us, or by our partners. This includes various education events around the state as well as events that were pledge thank-you gifts. A list of canceled events can be found here.
