Do you feel like your child is prepared for grade three? During the summer, are you planning to help your child stay on track with their learning or have a free-for-all summer with no sign of curriculum? Do you want to ensure your child stays on track but not overwhelm them with too much ‘work’? Let us help you with all your questions on how to prepare your child for grade three.
Preparing your child for grade three while aiming to avoid summer learning loss.
The first thing you need to do when aiming to prepare your child for grade three while avoiding summer learning loss? Don’t stress so much! As parents, we often worry about ensuring our children are on track with their learning. That worry can become more and more of a concern when we think about pandemic learning loss.
How to avoid summer learning loss on top of pandemic learning loss is another concern facing parents, especially when they hear that most children lose 2.6 months of math skills, two months of reading skills and the equivalent of one month of overall learning each summer.

So, how can we help our children catch up on all the learning loss they’ve experienced, stay on track and not lose even more learning skills during the summer?
Reading, writing, math and learning, in general, are essential skills your child must continually practice to develop correctly, especially during the summer.
