Incorporating Learning Into Summer Fun

Incorporating Learning Into Summer Fun
Kumon Math and Reading Gives Students a Boost

For children, learning is an ongoing process—one that continues even after the last bell of the school year. As your family gears up for fun, sun and relaxation, don’t forget that educational activities can’t be incorporated into vacation plans. Educators remind parents that time off from school shouldn’t mean a vacation from learning. Research shows that the pre-frontal cortex of the brain is growing during the first 20 years of a child’s life—and so the child should always be nurturing, fueling and exercising his or her brain.

A lack of learning activities during the summer months could result in lost stimulation during a critical development period. “It is just as important for children to participate in learning activities that exercise their growing minds as it is to be involved in physical activities that keep their bodies healthy and strong,” says Madhuri Agrawal for Kumon Math and Reading Centers.

Kumon Math and Reading Center of Lisle is helping children in Lisle, Woodridge and surrounding communities become great learners. 

Kumon helps children unlock their full potential by motivating them to achieve more on their own. The curriculum spans material from preschool to college. Students begin the program at a comfortable starting point and work independently on daily worksheets to build confidence and learning skills. This approach allows students to achieve individual goals and advance.

The end of the school year is quickly approaching.  If your child finds their school work too challenging, or perhaps not challenging enough Kumon will individually tailor a program to help your child reach his or her full potential.
