It’s hard to believe but the end of 2024-2025 is officially here! A heartfelt thank you for these last few months together. These past few months with your children have been such a gift. Thank you for welcoming me so warmly into this incredible school community.
While summer is a time for rest, fun, and family, it’s also a great opportunity to maintain the academic momentum we’ve built throughout the year. A few easy habits can go a long way in helping your child return in August feeling confident and ready to learn.
Here are some of my favorite summer learning tips:
📚 Summer workbooks are a great way to keep skills fresh. Just 2–3 pages a day can make a big difference—especially in math.
📖 Focus on fiction! While graphic novels can be fun, aim for chapter books that foster imagination and vocabulary growth.
👩👧👦 Read with, to, or alongside your child. Research shows that just 10 minutes a day of reading can significantly support literacy development.
📘 If your child isn’t quite reading chapter books yet, choose one to read aloud together. A favorite of mine is Charlotte’s Web—a classic that builds listening comprehension and story sequencing.
📚 If your child is already reading independently, consider starting a mini book club. Grab two copies of a book, read alongside each other, and discuss what happened after each chapter. It’s a fun way to stay connected and engaged!
