Superintendent’s Summer Program
Superintendent’s Summer Reading & Math Program
Reading
We recognize that family involvement in education is crucial for children to succeed in school and life. Please read with your children daily. Spend time discussing the stories, characters, places, events, and words. Encourage your children to read on their own. Share conversation over meals and other times the family is together. Children’s listening vocabulary enhances their reading vocabulary. Each student who has read at least 10 appropriate grade level books or 1,000 pages during the summer will be given a certificate of accomplishment when they return to school in the fall.
Math
Staying fluent in math, just like in reading, takes practice. To do this, make a goal to practice your math facts for at least 10 minutes a day, 4 days per week, for 10 weeks this summer.
40 days x 10 minutes of practice = almost 7 hours of math practice!
To track your practice, cross off one box every day you spend 10 minutes reviewing math facts. Return this paper to your teacher in August to receive a Superintendent’s Summer Math Award.
