Over the summer, should I review what my children learned during the previous school year to help them prepare for the coming school year?

Question:

Over the summer, should I review what my children learned during the previous school year to help them prepare for the coming school year?

Answer:

Keeping kids ​learning is important because they lose about 30 percent of what they learned the previous school year over the summer break. So, the more you can keep them engaged in learning, the better. In fact, simply sitting down and reviewing flash cards or reading a book can be ​beneficial.
