After the first few days of summer break, are you needing some educational resources for your students? Did you know that studies have shown (1) on average, students’ achievement scores declined over summer vacation by one month’s worth of school-year learning, (2) declines were sharper for math than for reading, and (3) the extent of loss was larger at higher grade levels?

Bridge the gap this summer! Having students read with you 20 minutes a day significantly lowers their decline over the summer months. Doing 20 minutes of practice on an educational site this summer can lower that decline even more.

Have an awesome summer filled with swimming, playing outside, fun family trips, and lots of learning!
