Why 15 Minutes a Day in the Summer?

Summer is the perfect time to memorize math facts and close math gaps.  Here’s a few reasons why:

1.  Prevent the Summer Slide: Regular practice helps maintain the math skills students have developed during the school year, preventing the “summer slide,” where students lose some of their gained knowledge.

2.  Reinforce Concepts: Frequent practice helps reinforce and solidify math concepts, making them easier to recall and apply in more complex problems later.

3.  Reduce Stress: Short, focused practice sessions can be less stressful and more manageable than longer, infrequent study periods, making math a more enjoyable activity.

4.  Improve Confidence: Regular practice helps build confidence in math skills, reducing anxiety and improving performance in the subject.

5.  Set Foundation for the Next School Year: Keeping math skills sharp ensures students are better prepared for the challenges of the upcoming school year.
