“What can my child do over the summer to practice his/her math skills?”  is a frequently heard question at this time of year.  There are several options that you and your child can consider.  We do encourage every child to do something this summer in order to keep his/her brain in the game, but in a fun and engaging way.  Mrs. Thereault has created a Symbaloo with links to a variety of online resources. Included in this site are links to: 
  • Calendars which have a problem for each day of the summer
  • Websites that have puzzles which require logic and application of basic skills
  • A list of real life projects that students can choose to do involving activities your family may be doing this summer (think road trip, recording swimming times if they are on a swim team, etc.)
  • A list of free apps that can turn their cell phones into learning tools
  • TenMarks (students’ current accounts will be available through July 31st).
 
If students returning to WKMS turn in evidence of having engaged in any of these activities for 75% of the days of summer vacation (that’s 45 out of the 60 days) by Friday, September 7th, they will be invited to participate in a special reward and will earn a prize when we return to school.  We encourage your whole family to get involved and spend some time working on some of these challenges with your child . . . make it a family affair! We wish you a fun and safe summer, filled with adventures and even a little math!
