Are you wondering how to maintain your child’s math skills or bolster math confidence for the coming school year? While research confirms a certain amount of “math loss” over the summer months, we also know that the opportunities for embedding reading reinforcement over the summer months are greater than that of practicing math. Let’s add math into our summer maintenance!
Attached are 50 family-friendly activities to build your child’s number sense while reinforcing basic math skills appropriate to each grade level. While this is not mandatory, we encourage students to complete as many activities as possible. Completing 30 boxes will give a student the opportunity to enter the drawing for a Summer Mathletics grand prize.
We encourage parents, guardians, grandparents, babysitters, siblings, camp counselors and daycare providers to use math talk whenever and wherever possible. Take a quick peek at the activities to give you a head start!
