Summer slump potential?

July 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 Have you watched more children riding bikes around the neighborhood?  Seen kids of all ages racing around in the local park?  Children in many areas are back on the streets this summer.

Due to budget shortages, school districts across the country have reduced or eliminated summer programs.

Although I love to watch kids destress and enjoy unstructured time, we might see more results of the seasonal slump (when children loose school year gain during summer months) in classrooms next fall.
