Here’s a great addition to your DIY Summer School. Summer Bridge Workbook. It helps prevent the “Summer Slide” – children can lose 2 months of knowledge over the summer! A little workbook each day can help prevent loss of knowledge.
These are available for kids from grade Kindergarten – 8th grade, click here:
Suggestion: Choose a book that your child can complete independently. Typically this is the grade they just completed. If your child needs a grade higher for enrichment or lower for extra support, don’t sweat it! Just place a large sticker over the grade on the cover and they’ll never know the difference.
The books are easy to read, colorful, and cover a variety of material.
The on-line description states: Daily activities in reading, writing, mathematics, and language arts with bonus activities in science and geography. Also included are full-color flash cards, incentive contract calendars, a certificate of completion, and the Summer Bridge Kids who guide children though their daily exercises.

My daughter’s preschool teacher recommended this series before she started kindergarten. This will be our 6th year using these workbooks. They are great! – Susan
I just got mine off of Amazon Friday & the girls are already working through them. We have used these for the past couple year & it’s been very helpful in keeping up their skills as well as giving them some structure & quiet work time.

That’s awesome Susan and Tori! I think the books look very kid friendly and mom friendly at the same time! 🙂
