Help me give my students items to keep the learning going with a Summer Bridge workbook, and a bucket full of fun this summer with items including chalk, bubbles, and beach balls.
We love to learn! My first graders are working hard every day, and so am I! These six and seven-year-olds are learning to read, have become writers and have made big gains in math. We are busy all day long, and there's still much to do.
My students are in first grade, and love coming to school to learn!
They come from a wide variety of living situations. Some come from two-parent homes, some from single parents, and some with multiple generations, or multiple families living in one apartment. Some of my students speak English fluently, and some do not. Some of my students come from families who support public education and encourage their students to do their best while at school. While at school, I hold high expectations for each student in their behavior and their academics, no matter their home life. We learn together, we work through problems together, and we celebrate successes together. Helping my students learn the skills of reading and math will help them for their entire lives.
My Project
In just 15 minutes a day, the Summer Bridge workbook series helps to prevent summer learning loss while paving the way toward a successful new school year.
And this is no average workbook—Summer Bridge Activities keeps the fun and the sun in summer break!
Designed to prevent summer learning loss by keeping kids mentally and physically active, the hands-on exercises can be done anywhere. These standards-based activities help kids set goals, develop character, practice fitness, and explore the outdoors. With 12 weeks of creative learning, Summer Bridge Activities keeps skills sharp all summer long.
My students work hard all year long and I want them to keep everything that we've learned this year. Summertime can be very hard for many of my students. The lack of schedules and things to do can cause many students to slide backwards. I want to make sure my students have plenty of things to do all summer so they never get bored. I want my students outside and not in front of a television or computer. This project will allow me to give my students activities to do while at home. Bubbles, chalk, and beach balls are easy to use and do not require much parent involvement. These tools will allow my students to play and grow while parents are at work or busy at home. My students will love writing their names in chalk and blowing bubbles. Between the workbook and the outside activities, my students will be set up for success in second grade!
