Free Summer Learning Resources

Hello Howe Families!

I hope that everyone has been enjoying the beautiful weather we are having!

Edutopia is a trusted online source that spotlights and informs what works in education. Edutopia shares evidence and practitioner-based learning strategies that empowers and promotes improvements in K-12 education.

Edutopia published an article Fun and Free Summer Learning that discusses and gives multiple free and engaging resources for you to use over the summer months with your children. The resources that are shared in the article cover all parts of the curriculum from Reading and Writing, to Math and Science. The grade level and age range also varies, so there is something for all.

Please, let me know what you think. If there is anything I can help you with or any resources that you are specifically looking for over the summer months, just ask.

Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the sun 🙂

Stay safe and healthy!

Best,
Ms. Puchala
