Living Sky promoting summertime learning for kids
With the start of the school season only a month away, Living Sky School Division is encouraging kids to try to make learning a part of their summer fun, to help ease their way into the new school year.
The division offers a series of Summer Learning Tips on its Facebook page so kids can stay on track with their learning before school resumes in September.
“I absolutely think it’s imperative that people spend time with their kids – whether that is reading, or playing games, to keep that summer learning going, so there is no loss over the summer,” Superintendent of Learning Jim Shevchuk said.
To start, the division recommends parents and caregivers ensure their kids stay active, and get involved in healthy outdoor activities, such as hiking or bike riding, and plan family outings together.
