Beat the Summer Slide

May 27, 2015 | Lakewood

What is the summer slide?

Studies show that over the summer months students lose up to 2 months of knowledge!

How can you beat the summer slide?
Just because school is out for summer doesn't mean that learning should stop.  Give your child opportunities for learning to help them get a jumpstart on the school year.

Have you ever heard the phrase: If you don't use it you lose it?  That's why the first few weeks of school are spent on reviewing previously learned materials.  You can give your student a huge headstart on the school year by keeping their minds engaged through the school break.  

What are the effects of summer learning?
Beyond just preventing loss of knowledge and adding to a child's learning, summer learning will build confidence in your student.
