Summer is a great time – vacations, sunshine, no school, and summer slide.
Wait – summer slide is not a good thing! We hear about it, we read about it, but do we do anything to counter it?
Students can lose 2–3 months of knowledge over the 2–3 month summer. This is not great for any student, let alone one that did not finish the year well.
What helps with summer slide?
-
Reading and discussing what was read with someone (just reading alone doesnt help enough)
-
Learning something you always wanted to learn and keeping your brain active!
-
Realizing learning is a year round, life long activity.
How can we help? We have a number of classes that are fun as well as educational. They can be 1 to 1 classes or small groups.
If you have an idea for a class you do not see, just ask! We may be able to accomodate the request!
