Happy Summer!
As we start summer break, it is important to remember that learning shouldn’t stop just because school does. As we have seen in the past, student NWEA scores tend to fall back several points in the fall when students have had three months off. In order to curb this trend, I encourage you to provide your child with weekly opportunities to continue and extend their learning.
That being said, below I have made a list of great websites that you can utilize over the summer with your child. If the internet it not an option, Barnes and Noble has a wide selection of student workbooks in every subject area that you can purchase and use on a daily basis to keep up the concepts and skills that they learned throughout the year.
