Consistency is the Key to Fight the Summer Math Slide
Fight the summer math slide.
Research shows that 2.5 months of math skills are lost during the summer. Yikes! That is A LOT!
Don't let that happen to your middle school math students.
Get them engaged during the summer by doing a little math every day.
Consistency is the key to success.
Encourage them to consistently fire up their brain every day and problem-solve through math questions. This will lead to greater success.
As John Maxwell stated, "Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day lead to great achievements gained slowly over time.”
No need to overwhelm them with a huge project, just have them do a problem a day.
I love these fun summer math packets for 7th grade math and 8th grade math. These contain 100 questions each. Just enough for the summer break.
Students will stay motivated as they color a square on a grid according to their answer. After they complete the 100 questions they will reveal a fun summer mystery picture.
