Ideally summer vacation is filled with fun, exploration and lazy days resting by the pool. The best times of your life, right? In reality, with the ring of a final bell, students go from a regimented schedule of classes and homework to weeks of sleeping in and many idle hours to fill.
Not a bad situation, until you consider that how difficult it is to retain unused information for ten long weeks.
Step into the next school year prepared. Spending an hour or two every week during the summer can provide productive focus; reinforce what was learned and offer a head start on next school year.
