Avoid Summer Learning Loss with Sylvan!
Did you know that over the summer your child could lose up to 2 months of what they learned in school? Avoid summer learning loss with Sylvan. Summer is a child's opportunity to learn.
For most children, summer is a time to leave classes and homework behind. However, when they return to school in the fall after the long summer break, students can find themselves struggling to catch up.
Skills and knowledge gained throughout the school year fade during the summer months. Loss of content retention begins within 24 to 48 hours of learning unless the new infromation is reinforced or applied immediately. After a month without reinforcement, approximately 80% of what a student has recently learned, can be lost.
A break from school is great for recharging your child's batteries, but if they are not using the skills and knowledge that was learned in the classroom, they could find themselves lagging behind when shcool starts up again.
For children who have been struggling at school, summer can be their opportunity to catch-up on key skills and feel more confident when they head back to class in the fall. For students who do well, it is an opportunity to keep their enthusiasm for learning high.
Parents can play a key role in reinforcing learning on an ongoing basis. Sylvan Learning Centre has prepared practical tips for integrating continuous learning into fun, family activities all summer long.
