Formal report can be used to document the need for special services provided by schools, to take extended time for SATs, ACTs or High School Entrance Exams, or for a gifted program.
Enrichment Options Summer is also the perfect time for kids (and parents!) to learn something new. Author Ginny Graves of Parents magazine says, “Most parents read to their young kids, which helps encourage imagination, language, and an early love of learning. But not all children remain curious and inquisitive into adolescence. Alarmingly, studies have found that from third grade on, a child’s enjoyment of learning drops continuously — a phenomenon some researchers blame on the increasing focus on grades and report cards as kids get older. Younger children, on the other hand, learn for the sheer joy of it.”
