Summer Slide Stops Here

By Anonymous
Our rising 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders have learned so much this year and we want to ensure that they retain all of their skills through the summer months.  We discussed how important it is to read widely for at least 20 minutes each day.  We learned that the average elementary student loses more than 2.5 months of math understanding over the summer and decided we want to continue growing our math brains over the summer, too.

Your SBLC kiddo will come home today with a math and reading recording sheet.  We appreciate your help finding a great spot for this log to live through the summer.  Your student will bring this completed sheet back to school in the fall and we'll be excited to greet our confident readers and mathematicians.  

A little info about summer slide for you...
