Keep summer brains busy (and happy)
Each Summer Learning Pack reviews the big skills from the grade a child just finished, from letters and counting in preschool to fractions and multi-digit math in 5th grade. Reading, writing and math practice come in short pages kids can finish in a few minutes. That's the whole idea: a little each day keeps skills warm so the first weeks of the new year feel easy instead of rusty. Choose the pack for the grade your child just completed.
Summer practice works best when it's short, steady and a little bit sneaky. Here's what we recommend.
Pick one page a day at the same time, like right after breakfast or before the pool. Ten calm minutes most days beats a big catch-up week in August. A sticker chart on the fridge keeps it going.
Why it works: the brain holds on to what it meets again and again over time; spaced practice was rated among the very best methods (Dunlosky and colleagues, 2013).
Try it withFirst Grade Summer Learning PackSummer SchoolOpen it →Don't finish all the math, then all the reading. Alternate days, or do one of each. Switching keeps kids fresh and helps them remember both.
Why it works: mixing different kinds of problems in one practice set helped students do far better on a later test (Rohrer and Taylor, 2007).

Why it works: a big review of study methods ranked quick self-quizzing among the most powerful ways to remember (Dunlosky and colleagues, 2013).

Choose the grade your child just finished. If they're heading into 3rd grade, the 2nd grade pack reviews exactly what they need. For a confidence boost, you can start one grade lower.
About 10 to 15 minutes a day, a few days a week, is plenty. Steady short practice keeps skills fresh without taking over summer.
It's the skill loss many kids show after a long break from school, especially in math and reading. A little regular practice is the easiest way to prevent it.
Yes! Many teachers print a pack for each child on the last week of school. It's an easy way to give families a ready-made summer routine.
