[blparent] FW: Keep Your Children Engaged in Learning Over the Summer

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

I buy used books when I can find them; my town has a great independent bookstore. My daughter and I visit the library a lot. When we go on road trips, I encourage my kid to read as many signs as possiblejust for the fun of it.

Kristen is right, blparent.  What are some of the ways you encourage reading?

It's estimated that students lose the equivalent of two months of math and reading skills during the summer months, sometimes referred to as the "summer slide".  To keep your student engaged in learning over the summer, consider the following advice from teachers at St. Joseph School in Downers Grove.

"It's important for kids to stay active and healthy during the summer months, enjoying the weather and playing outdoors," said Krissy Knightly, 2nd grade teacher.  "I encourage my students to read every day during summer.  They can practice reading to younger siblings, pets, or a favorite stuffed animal!  I recommend that students challenge themselves by taking part in the Downers Grove (or any local
library) Library Summer Reading Program."
