If you’ve been teaching for any time at all, you know that summer slide is real, and maybe you’re looking for some ideas for preventing summer slide in June and July with your own children. Perhaps you want to find some ideas to give to the parents of your students that are easy to implement.

In today's podcast, I share several ideas to slam on the brakes to stop summer slide with fun activities. All of these sneak in learning and skills practice while students are having a great summer break.
