In preparation for the upcoming school year, the Lower School summer reading and math assignments will provide the necessary practice for your child to be prepared for the expectations of his/her new Form level. The summer reading assignments, in addition to the 1000 minute reading challenge encourages students to maintain their reading skills. The math lessons are a cumulative review intended for your child to maintain and/or reinforce the prerequisite skills essential for his/her future success in mathematics.
Research demonstrates that many skills are lost due to the absence of regular practice over the summer. Retaining skills as students move up to the next Form level is crucial to their academic performance.
