Summer Math Fun

May 30, 2017 by Halley Lavenstein Leave a Comment

summer math funMost students will lose hard-earned math skills during summer vacation, but you can avoid summer brain drain by incorporating fun, multisensory math activities into your summer plans.

Hit the Road: If you’re taking a road trip, map out the route with your child and have him estimate the number of miles using the map scale.

Cooking Up Fun: Encourage your child to help out with cooking and baking. Let him do the measuring, and then compare various measurements and quantities.

On Deck: There are many kid-friendly card games that include basic math skills. For a list of engaging games, check the link below for Acing Math (One Deck at a Time):

Chalk Art: Use sidewalk chalk to create a colorful number line. You and your child can practice skip-counting and addition and subtraction skills by walking forward and backward on the number line.

Math Twister: This is a great rainy-day activity. Place numbers on the colored circles of a Twister mat and call out math facts. For example, you might say “3 + 4” and the players need to find a circle with a “7” on it.

Summer Math Camp: Join in the fun with a small group of peers while reinforcing critical math skills through engaging, hands-on, theme-based activities. Rocking Reading & Megahit Math for grades 1,2, 3 and 4

Whether you choose one or all of these great activities, you can solve the “math problem” for, and with, your child this summer.

Testimonial

We were so grateful to find this program. Our only regret is that we didn’t sign up earlier in our son’s education.
