The summer slide is inevitable unless we encourage and help parents keep the learning over the summer going. In this episode, I share strategies to keep their learning on track and in fun ways to where the students actually enjoy what they are learning. I provide activities parents can incorporate into daily routines to make learning fun and engaging. Preventing the summer slide is so important for the impact of early intervention on children's readiness for first grade. First grade teachers will thank you!

In this episode I share:

  • Summer Slide Solutions
  • Encouraging Summer Reading
  • Engaging Families in Learning
  • Play-Based Learning Activities
