Do you have a child in Grades 3-6 who might benefit from a math summer review?  This program is run by a retired teacher and is tailored to your child’s grade level needs.

Another way to fight the summer slide is to have your child use Dreambox Math during the summer break.  Have them access their account to keep their edge over the break.
