Summer is Here!
As we transition to summer schedules, we wanted to provide you with resources for summer reading. You can help your students retain skills they gained this year by reading to them, encouraging them to read for pleasure, and reviewing basic skills in reading and math. The activities and resources below will help support parents in providing structures that can be used in small daily chunks for summer review and learning.
