Parents work with their child to avoid the “summer slide.” What is summer slide?
Summer is the perfect time for students to relax, but it’s also a time when summer learning loss can occur. This is called the “summer slide.”
*By reinforcing reading and writing skills during off time, parents can create a summer reading list
*celebrate or reward their child when they finish each book or review task.
*Set small amounts of time aside weekly or daily to make it fun and not seem like a daunting event.
