With Turtle Diary, we’ve done the hard work for you. Common Core Standards used in their classrooms will be reinforced with our games, lessons, and quizzes.

All of the fun we offer on our site is aligned with the newer vision of mathematics and other subjects. By sticking with Turtle Diary, you can let us handle the hard work of explaining Common Core. Sometimes this method may seem foreign to you if you’ve learned with “old math.” In fact, you might just learn along with your student!

Students have the necessary skills to be able to compete in a competitive world with an increased focus on STEM. Cognitive demand reigns higher than rote learning, and students are able to quickly visualize and manipulate numbers. They can “see” the inner workings of the problems, especially in math, and learn to mentally work the numbers.

Turtle Diary helps students to learn and practice these concepts, especially if they aren’t quite grasping it in the classroom. You’ll be amazed at how quickly your student picks up the new concepts. Just remember that they’ve never learned it the “old” way. The Common Core way is THE way for their learning journey.

The more they learn, the better their classroom experience will be because the information will click with repeated exposure.

Even though there may seem to be an overwhelming amount of games, the idea is to give students the choice. All of the games in a grade level reinforce the same necessary concepts, but just in a different way. Students will be practicing the same ideas over and over again as they choose from one fun game to another. We dare them to be bored!

Since then it has expanded to include standards in language arts and mathematics for preschool through fifth grade and above. The program emphasizes exploration, play, and positive reinforcement—encouraging children to become confident and intrinsically motivated. Due to the engaging content that “feels like play,” Starfall serves as an educational alternative to other entertainment choices for children. read more...

Starfall activities are research-based and align with state learning objectives for English language arts and mathematics.

At age 5, children continue to develop their skills in various areas of knowledge. Here are some of the learning and concepts that children of this age tend to acquire:

What do 5-year-olds learn?

They expand their vocabulary and learn new words. They begin to understand and use more complex grammatical concepts, such as plurals and verb tenses. They develop early reading and writing skills, such as recognizing letters and writing their name.

Mathematics:

They learn to count to higher numbers and understand the number sequence. They start adding and subtracting small numbers. They grasp concepts like ‘bigger,’ ‘smaller,’ ‘equal,’ and begin exploring geometric shapes and patterns.

They improve their ability to focus and concentrate, allowing them to tackle more complex and enduring tasks. They develop the skill of following more detailed instructions.

They learn about more advanced social norms, such as empathy, cooperation, and respect for diversity. They begin to understand concepts of time and routines, such as days of the week and months of the year.

Computer Science:

They can start using electronic devices more skillfully and engage in online activities designed for children their age, such as educational apps and interactive games.

Natural Sciences:

They develop a deeper understanding of their natural environment, learning about the life cycle of animals, the seasons, weather, and the importance of environmental conservation. They start exploring more advanced scientific concepts, such as gravity and the properties of matter.

It’s important to remember that children’s development varies from individual to individual, so some children may acquire these concepts earlier or later than age 5. Additionally, learning should be a fun and tailored experience to each child’s needs and interests to foster a lasting love for learning.”

36 Best Toys for 2-Year-Olds in 2024

When it comes time to buy a toddler gift, choose from these expert-approved puzzles, pretend props, games and open-ended play sets.

We've been independently researching and testing products for over 120 years. If you buy through our links, we may earn a commission. Learn more about our review process.

When it comes time to get a gift for kids this age, choose one that lets them stretch their imaginations. And though there are many options when it comes to the best toys and gifts for 2-year-olds in 2024 , the experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute can help. They vet hundreds of toys each year, looking for toys that are safe, fun and engaging. Some of our recommendations are even current or previous Good Housekeeping Best Toy Award winners! When the testing was finished this year, these rose to the top.

Our Top Picks

Bouncy Pals Fox

GH Readers Can't Stop Buying

Fat brain toys bilibo by moluk.

For Sensory Seekers

Goliath jelly blox creative kit.

Now they can bop to their hearts' content without a bounce house or a trampoline — building s trong leg muscles and a sense of balance in the process. The menagerie can include a fox, bull, cow, dog, tiger or zebra, and when it's not in use, the cover can come off and be washed. Ages 18 months+

What's a Bilibo? What isn't it? It can be a seat that they wobble around. Flip it over, and it's a tunnel or a shell. They can wear it on their heads like a helmet or use it as a landscape for their figures. The open-endedness means that kids can really be creative when they play with it. It also comes in several colors or in a set of six mini versions . Ages 2+

These blocks offer more of a sensory experience than other building bricks. They can be squished or stretched, and some have beads, sand, stars or smaller bricks inside. Good Housekeeping Institute testers loved using them as fidget toys, and parents say kids liked exploring the different textures. You get 20 pieces in a set, so they're great to combine with other sets ( Goliath or otherwise) for a true variety of sensations. Ages 2+

Animal Parade A to Z Puzzle

This puzzle will definitely give their brains a workout: Because it's not square or rectangular in shape, it gives more of a challenge than a regular jigsaw puzzle. But practicing the alphabet will give them a hint, since the animals connect in alphabetical order. When they're separated, the wooden pieces are chunky enough to use for imaginative play. Ages 2+

Melissa & Doug Pretty Purse Fill and Spill Soft Play Set

Pretend play is so important for toddlers, and they love to imitate the adults around them. This lets them do just that with a bag, which has a cell phone that makes sounds, a key ring with four keys that can be separated, a purse with four countable coins and a compact with a mirror. They'll love packing it up and spilling the contents out again, possibly while asking "Where's my phone?" just like grownups do. Ages 18 months+

'Look, it's Woof Woof Dog' Board Book

Kids will be delighted to flip through the pages, looking at the collage-like illustrations of different animals, like the "Glub Glub Fish" or the "Quack Quack Duck." In addition, sturdy felt flaps to lift offer more surprises. But Good Housekeeping Testers' favorite feature was the mirror on the last page hat asks, "But what do YOU say?" Ages 0 – 3

RELATED: The Good Housekeeping Best Kids' Book Awards

Wood City Wooden Car Race Track Ramp

They'll get a lesson in cause-and-effect when they see these cars zip down the slanted ramps. It feels like a cool stunt each time the cars reverse direction. It comes with seven cars in different colors of the rainbow. Ages 18 months+

KiwiCo Pretend Play Doctor's Kit

Ease those "white-coat worries" by letting kids step into the role of doctor with sturdy, toddler-sized tools. This medical bag is filled with an otoscope, stethoscope, thermometer, bandages, syringe, blood pressure cuff and even a silicone cold pack. A check-up list walks kids through the steps of a doctor's visit, so they can be sure they do a thorough job on their "patients." Ages 2+

'Where's Bear?' Game

Take the idea of stacking and nesting boxes to the next level with this early board game for kids . To play, parents and kids take turns hiding the bear under the different boxes, and guessing where it is. It promotes turn-taking and patience, and Good Housekeeping Institute testers reported that their kids wanted to play it again and again. Ages 2+

Battat Play Kitchen & Market

This 2-in-1 kitchen gives kids 360 degrees of imaginative play. On one side, they can cook up whatever dishes they can dream up; on the other, they can use the chalkboard to write out the specials of the day and sell their items in a market. It also comes with dishes, utensils and cookware to inspire them. Ages 2+

WowWee Baby Shark's Big Show! Kids Mini Tablet

Your toddler is probably obsessed with "Baby Shark," this will have them practicing their numbers . Kids will particularly love that they can play the song over and over again. Ages 2+

RELATED: The Best STEM Toys for Kids

John Deere Build-a-Buddy Johnny Tractor Toy

John Deere fans with instantly recognize the green and yellow color scheme on this tractor, which toddlers can use alongside their favorite vehicles. But this one has a twist: It comes with a battery-operated toy drill that kids can use to take the tractor apart and put it together again, turning it into an early STEM toy. Ages 18 months+

Mommy's Shadow Inspiring Careers Stacking Cubes

Even without looking at the designs, toddlers can test out their problem-solving skills by stacking these 10 blocks up by size, nesting them inside each other, building structures and knocking them down. Then, the illustrations and words all feature inspiring images of multicultural moms performing different jobs, so you can start conversations about the different roles in a community. Ages 2+

LEGO DUPLO Mickey & Minnie Birthday Train

This Good Housekeeping Institute Seal-holding LEGO train set is just the right size for toddlers: only 22 pieces, with lots of fun accessories like gifts, a cupcake with a candle, balloons and a train to carry them all. There are even some numbered bricks so kids can practice counting and stacking. Ages 2+

Step2 Rain Showers Splash Pond

When they're looking to do water play, this table lets them pour water into the upper tier and watch in delight as it "rains" down to the lower one. It also comes with creatures that float, tools to scoop and other cause-and-effect toys like ramps and water wheels. Ages 18 months+

Little Tikes TotSports Easy Hit Golf Set

They'll have to practice their focus and aim — or just get their sillies out hitting the ball in wild arcs — with this toddler-sized golf set. It comes with its own goal-like putting hole, three balls and two clubs, plus a rolling cart that'll also help them roleplay the part of master golfer. It's part of Little Tikes's sports line, which also includes tot-sized basketball , T-ball and soccer sets. Ages 1+

Skoolzy Pegboard Set

The rest is open-ended: Kids can sort them by color, stack on the board as tall as they can, create patterns or find their own ways to play. Ages 2+

LeapFrog Yum-2-3 Toaster

Complete with utensils, a plate and food, this interactive toaster lets kids pretend to cook just like their favorite adults do. It can help your 2-year-old get familiar with numbers, colors and opposites, too. Ages 2+

Rainbow Alligator Pull Along Toy

Toddlers will be motivated to work on that gross motor coordination with this brightly colored gator, who follows behind with the pull of a string. As they pull, its tail and head move up and down and make a delightful click-clack sound. Ages 18 months+

Radio Flyer Scoot About Sport Ride-On Toy

Your toddlers can ride anywhere on this sporty ride-on. It features wide-set front wheels that help with stability, while the handlebars help them steer. There's even a storage compartment under the seat. It holds up to 42 pounds, so they can ride around starting at age 1 and until they're about 3 years old. Ages 1+

When is results day 2024? GCSEs, A levels, T Levels and VTQs

In August, pupils in England will find out their results for GCSEs, A levels, T Levels and VTQ (vocational technical qualifications) exams.  

Ahead of results day, schools, colleges and assessment centres should contact pupils directly to tell them how and when to collect them. They’ll also be able to answer any questions you have ahead of the day.  

Here’s what you need to know about exam results this year.

When is GCSE and Level 1/2 VTQ results day 2024?  

GCSE  results day is on Thursday 22 August.  

Results for Level 1, Level 1/2 and Level 2  VTQs  will also be available on or before this date.  

Normally, pupils will be able to go to their school or college and collect their results in person where they can get advice from their teachers.  

Alternatively, schools will send results to pupils in the post or by email.  

When is A level, T Level and Level 3 VTQs results days 2024?  

AS level, A level and  T Level  results day is on Thursday 15 August.  

Results for VTQs at Level 3 taken alongside or instead of A levels, such as BTECs, will be released to pupils on or before Thursday 15 August.  

Results can be emailed or sent in the post, but it’s a good idea to go into school or college to receive your results so you can get support from teachers and career advisers to discuss your options, especially if your results might affect your plans for September.  

If you’re applying to university via UCAS, you can track your  application online .  

How have exams been graded since the pandemic?  

Between 2019 and 2022, we saw a significant increase in the number of entries receiving top grades, due to disruption caused by the pandemic.  

Last year saw a return to pre-pandemic grading arrangements, and overall national results were similar to those of 2019. Ofqual have confirmed that they are continuing with normal grading this year.  

This is key to making sure exam qualifications are trusted – it means that universities and employers understand the performance of candidates, have confidence in their qualifications, and can use them to help them progress into the right opportunities.   

What should I do if I’m disappointed with my results?  

Your school or college and your teachers will support you if don’t get the results you hoped for or if your plans change based on the results you get.  

Remember, there are many different exciting options to take after school and college.

Pop-up pornography is unexpected and uninvited in kids' online spaces, and it's harming young people

Alex was in year 6 on Wikipedia researching a project, on his iPad, when porn popped up unexpectedly.

"I thought my iPad had been infected with a virus or something and I was quite scared," the now 17-year-old says.

"I didn't want to tell dad that I had this weird virus … I felt very embarrassed."

Youth advocate and educator Dan Principe works with young people to build ideas about healthy masculinity and respectful relationships.

He says "pop-up sex bots dropping into these primary schoolers' online spaces" are now to be expected — but definitely not welcome.

"We're talking about a $97 billion-a-year industry that makes up 30 per cent of the internet, as a conservative estimate," he says.

"I just want to be really, really clear that's not young people's fault.

"Is this the healthiest way to learn about sex, consent, and respect? Is this going to be a positive sex educator? Or is it actually harming us?"

So what is the harm?

Years ago you had to walk into a shop to buy a pornographic magazine or video. 

Now it's available to anyone with a digital device, and it's making its way to children without them even looking for it.

QUT researcher Maree Crabbe says half of young people reported it was not intentional the first time they saw pornography.

"It might have just appeared in their social media feed or a pop-up, or they might have spelt something wrong in a search engine," Ms Crabbe says.

Sasha, 16, says online porn is "unavoidable".

"I've definitely come across it on Instagram because, on your Explore page, you don't have much control over what comes up," she says.

"I tried to ignore it because I didn't know what to do with that information."

She thinks pornography is harmful to young people because it pushes unrealistic standards.

"These things aren't real. And especially to young girls, like, no young girl is going to look like that," she says.

"But the idea of that's what's beautiful, that's desirable, I think is quite harmful."

Jasmine, 17, believes pornography "perpetuates an unrealistic body image".

"That's what [young women] see as desirable so that stuff gets ingrained in the culture of society," she says.

Educator Dan says porn is also a driver of attitudes that see women as less human, and reinforces ideas of power and dominance of men over women.

"It's certainly not helping to establish great understandings of respectful relationships and consent," he says.

'This is not OK'

Ms Crabbe is the director of an Australian project called It's Time We Talked which focuses on the impact pornography has on young people.

She says most of what teenagers are seeing is not even close to reality and confuses what we understand as consent, pleasure, and how men and women should behave.

"It's often sexist, and racist, and homophobic," Ms Crabbe says.

"The reason that I got into this work is because young people told me that they were learning about sex from porn.

"And when I looked at what they're learning about sex from porn, and I read the research about it and its impacts — particularly its relationship to violence — I thought 'this is not OK'."

A study that Ms Crabbe and her colleagues recently released found that almost half of all boys had seen pornography by the age of 13, and almost half of girls had seen it by the age of 15.

"On average, young men see pornography three years before their first partnered sexual experience and young women see it two years before," she says.

"So often children or young people are being exposed to sexual imagery online before they've kissed an intimate partner or been intimate with someone in any way at all."

Ms Crabbe says pornography is impacting the kinds of sexual practices that young people are engaging in — and it's dangerous.

"We're seeing an increase, for example, in strangulation during sex, which is a very dangerous practice and has become, unfortunately, quite common with no conversation about consent," she says.

Jasmine thinks the unrealistic treatment of women in pornographic videos is a concern.

"Getting choked and pushed around and stuff is seen as the ideal by young men," she says.

"And then young women see that as well. And they think, 'Oh, this is what's supposed to be happening to me.'"

Alex says it also influences what young men see as the norm.

"Is this what we're going to have to be doing?" he says.

Setting up unrealistic expectations

Ms Crabbe says pornography is "not how to create good pleasure for a partner in real life".

And the kids who spoke to BTN High agree.

Charlie was in year 7 doing homework when porn popped up unexpectedly on his device.

"It's a fake scenario, it's not real life, [and] it's often before a lot of people experience their first romantic relationship," the now 18-year-old says.

"A lot of the stuff that people see is fake, it's not authentic," Jasmine says.

"Very fake," says Alex.

"And as a result, I guess that ultimately hurts your relationships and further relationships in the future."

How to counteract harmful messages

The government is trialling age verification technology that could restrict access to porn for those under the age of 18.

The eSafety Commissioner has also given social media and tech giants until the end of the year to show how they'll stop children from being exposed to pornography online .

"Surely we can do more to keep young people safe," says Dan, the youth advocate and educator.

"We need to rearrange the fact that we have put the profits of this billion-dollar industry ahead of the wellbeing of young people."

Charlie thinks uncomfortable conversations are needed.

"I think there definitely should be more protection for young people online … [when] going on different websites or social media. There need to be measures put in place for that," he says.

"And then also, I think, if people want to access it, there still should be age restrictions in place because of the impact it can have on young men and young women at such a young age."

But for teenagers like Sasha, pop-up porn can be a difficult and embarrassing topic to discuss.

"It's such a taboo topic. No-one's really talking about it," she says.

"So I think starting open conversations and breaking down that taboo barrier would definitely help."

Britain’s Violent Riots: What We Know

Officials had braced for more unrest on Wednesday, but the night’s anti-immigration protests were smaller, with counterprotesters dominating the streets instead.

• Share full article

By Lynsey Chutel

After days of violent rioting set off by disinformation around a deadly stabbing rampage, the authorities in Britain had been bracing for more unrest on Wednesday. But by nightfall, large-scale anti-immigration demonstrations had not materialized, and only a few arrests had been made nationwide.

Instead, streets in cities across the country were filled with thousands of antiracism protesters, including in Liverpool, where by late evening, the counterdemonstration had taken on an almost celebratory tone.

Over the weekend, the anti-immigration protests, organized by far-right groups, had devolved into violence in more than a dozen towns and cities. And with messages on social media calling for wider protests and counterprotests on Wednesday, the British authorities were on high alert.

With tensions running high, Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s cabinet held emergency meetings to discuss what has become the first crisis of his recently elected government. Some 6,000 specialist public-order police officers were mobilized nationwide to respond to any disorder, and the authorities in several cities and towns stepped up patrols.

Wednesday was not trouble-free, however.

In Bristol, the police said there was one arrest after a brick was thrown at a police vehicle and a bottle was thrown. In the southern city of Portsmouth, police officers dispersed a small group of anti-immigration protesters who had blocked a roadway. And in Belfast, Northern Ireland, where there have been at least four nights of unrest, disorder continued, and the police service said it would bring in additional officers.

But overall, many expressed relief that the fears of wide-scale violence had not been realized.

Here’s what we know about the turmoil in Britain.
