Rising Grade 2 Summer Learning Portfolio

Welcome to the Summer Learning! This summer, to help your child prepare for the challenges ahead, we composed activities to foster acquisition of prerequisite skills and review some important concepts from the last year. Instructions: • Each day read the directions from the activity calendar with your child and have your child complete the lesson INDEPENDENTLY, unless stated otherwise in the calendar. If your child is having difficulties with an activity, please assist them, but try to encourage independent work. • Some days, the words “Portfolio Item” are written next to the date on the calendar. These activities have a corresponding page in the portfolio with directions for completion. • This portfolio was specifically designed to have a minimal amount of activities per day so that they can be done with fidelity. Please make sure you and your child work carefully and diligently to complete these activities. Remember “Perfect practice makes perfect!” • At the top of each calendar it instructs the children to read each day for 20 minutes. This reading can be done independently or with an adult. Calendar activities that involve reading also count toward your reading log. For example, if your child is asked to read a picture book and then complete an activity, make sure that you log his or her reading time in the reading log. Reading Log form is enclosed in the portfolio. If you run out of space, use the back of the page. • Adult should initial each completed activity. • You may be contacted throughout the summer to come in and meet with a teacher to help support your child’s learning. In this case, your teacher will schedule portfolio review dates before the end of the school year.
