Keep math skills from sliding this summer

Students who don't do math over the summer risk losing months of skills. Helping your elementary schooler practice math skills all summer is essential. Here are just a few fun ways to add math to your child's day: Have your child use a map key to calculate the distance between home and the places you go, then track the actual mileage. You can also add the digits on license plates outside and see who can get to 100 first. Each week, have a family game night and play cards and board games that use number skills.
