Ten Fun Ways to Learn all Summer Long!

Summer provides an excellent opportunity to work with your kids -- boosting their skills and preventing the dreaded (and very real) summer slide. But mention summer learning, and most parents envision grumbling kids and workbooks at the kitchen table — enough to make them call it quits before even beginning.

Join Jennifer Hasser, M.Ed., for this engaging workshop, where you will learn ten different activities that you can use all summer long to reinforce literacy concepts with your children. Whether you are at the pool, in the backyard, or on a road trip, Jennifer will show you how to make learning fun. Activities will be presented in a way that will allow you to adjust them to your child’s age and ability level.
