Parent Coffee: “Summer Literacy Skills”

Research studies have shown that students lose significant knowledge in reading and math over summer break, undoing much of the hard work they put in during the school year. This can lead to a snowball effect as they experience subsequent skill loss each year. Join Literacy Specialist Chelsea McKinlay and Librarian Serge Fedorowsky as they share steps parents can take to slow this “summer slide” and enhance literary skills over the break. Together, we will cover specific, manageable activities you can use to support reading, writing, and problem-solving skills at home and make education a fundamental (and fun) part of your summer!
