June-July+Happenings

Summer Time Fun

Parents and Students: Don't let the summertime slump take over! What can you do?

1. Experiences - We have more time to travel, go to camp, and visit family near and far away. These opportunities build relationships and make memories. In turn, we remember and enjoy telling and writing about these special times.

Also, experiences do not have to be expensive or include traveling far distances. Be creative: Go to the library and then visit a different library in the area; go to different parks each week; visit Aldridge Gardens; building a tent out of sheets and chairs in the house; create a treat to eat-plan, go to the grocery, make and invite a friend.

2. Read, Read, Read.... a book, a magazine, think of a topic you want to learn more about to do a safe search on the computer. Learn something together.

3. Math - review basic facts adding and subtracting to 20 and play a multiplication game

4. Once a week or so, select a month from my monthly "Happenings" pages and review some of the activities/links.
