Summer reading and math camp reimagined for fun! Engage your child in a fun, supportive, and creative realm of enriching curriculum designed by expert teachers. Strengthen and practice key reading and math success skills through a variety of lively games and activities, such as Reader’s Theater and Multiplication Twister.

Who Is This Program For?

Rocking Reading & Megahit Math is intended for students entering grades 1 – 5 in the fall, who may need a boost to their reading and math skills before starting the new school year.  COVID-19 and distance learning have impacted most students’ academic progress significantly, and this course can help close the COVID gap and avoid the Summer Slide.Summer Academic Program

Consider Rocking Reading & Megahit Math if:

  • Your child could use more practice/improve fluency with reading and/or math skills
  • You are worried your child is falling a little behind peers in reading and math
  • Your child was just starting to understand certain concepts in reading and math as the school year ended and you don’t want to lose momentum
  • Your child could benefit from a preview of upcoming reading and math skills in the fall

PLEASE NOTE:

  • If your child is two grade levels or more behind peers in reading and/or math, this program is NOT an appropriate fit.
  • This program is NOT an appropriate replacement for the RITES Code Breakers intensive reading and writing summer program.
  • This program is not designed as an accelerated learning program.

For all of these learning profiles and goals, please contact RITES Educational Consultants and we’d be happy to discuss the options.

RITES’ Summer Reading and Math Program is designed to:

  • Boost Confidence – With improved reading and math skills, your student will have more confidence in the classroom this fall and all year long.
  • Improve Difficult Skills – Individual attention enables students to conquer elusive skills from the past school year and gain new expertise.
  • Prevent Brain Drain – Students who aren’t academically engaged typically lose a month of mastery over summer. By being involved in this program, students will maintain and further develop current skills.
  • Spark Excitement for the Upcoming School Year – RITES’ interactive and exciting programs foster a newfound “yearn to learn.” Your student will be excited to show off new skills and start the school year motivated and ready for success.

Below is a menu of skills we select from, depending on the profiles and specific needs of each group:

SUMMER READING
  • Word attack
  • Vocabulary
  • Guided reading
  • Fluency
  • Comprehension strategies
  • Critical thinking
SUMMER MATH
  • Math facts
  • Word problems
  • Numerical relationships
  • Math vocabulary
  • Patterns
  • Place value
  • Critical thinking

For a better school year – stop Summer Brain Drain:

Studies show that children who are not in summer programs lose about a month’s worth of learning. Additionally, in-depth research has also shown that this learning loss is a result of not participating in educational activities during the summer. RITES’ Rocking Reading and Megahit Math Program is designed to engage students’ whole brain in fun, interactive activities. By attending this program, your student will not lose skills over the summer and will have a head-start on learning new material.

Not sure which program is right for your child? Contact RI Tutorial’s academic counselors so we can help your child make educational gains this summer in our proven, effective, high-quality programs.

Testimonial

Changed My Son’s Life
My son has dyslexia, attended the RITES summer program and has been receiving instruction from a RITES tutor for nearly 2 years. He has made remarkable progress and were it not for RITES and the support he has received, he would not be the confident learner that he is today. His tutor is Orton-Gillingham trained and modifies the curriculum to suit his academic needs. Halley and Lisa are always available to answer any questions or concerns I may have as a parent. They offer suggestions and lend a listening ear when the weight of having a child with a learning disability gets to be overwhelming. RITES provides free parent educational seminars/workshops which is a tremendous resource when one is trying to navigate the world of evaluations, IEP’s, 504′s,etc. I cannot say enough about the level of knowledge and professionalism that is at the heart of RITES program.
