7. Reading Over the Summer
Kindergarten: Make sure your child reads every day no matter what level they are! Without being exposed to reading, it is more likely your child will drop reading levels when coming back in September. If your child can decode- work on COMPREHENSION! Encourage your child to independently stop and think about their characters, what is happening in the story and how the character is changing/feeling.
First Grade: While they are reading, have your child retell the books they are reading, making sure to include how the characters feelings changed throughout the book. They should be able to infer character traits using characters thoughts, feelings, and actions.
Second Grade: Students in second grade need to read daily and for sustained periods of time. As students progress from early chapter books into more detailed texts, they will need to develop more advanced comprehension skills. Check-in with your child after reading to discuss their book. See if they can retell key ideas and details. See if they can discuss character feeling and why they felt that way. Do they understand character actions and motivation? See if they keep track of multiple characters and plot lines. Discussion will help support your child in practicing skills that will support their comprehension.

12. Math Fluency versus Automaticity
Fluency involves a mixture of just knowing some answers, knowing some answers from patterns and knowing some answers from the use of strategies. Fluently adding and subtracting within means students can find sums and differences within 10 reasonably quickly and say it or write it.
*Fluency may take much of the year for students to achieve
Automaticity is information known from memory. When students achieve automaticity, they have attained a level of mastery that enables them to retrieve facts from long-term memory without conscious effort or attention.
