Summer Ideas

If you're looking for ways to continue to support your child in their learning over the summer, there are quite a few free and easy things you can do! Think about getting a library card and spend a day each week at the library. Lots have special events as well that promote reading! Giving your child access to many books helps to keep their skills sharp! Continue to practice flashcards and facts during the summer as well! Even something like 5 minutes a day keeps those multiplication facts fresh in their minds. You can also consider having your child keep a journal or diary! This is a great way to work on penmanship, grammar, and writing skills! Have them practice writing various types of sentences in their entries as a challenge! Grocery shopping, chores, and sports or lessons can also be great places to work on problem solving skills.
