Learning Heroes
This website can help parents and families: "Before school lets out, ask the teacher where your child is doing well, where more support may be needed and what you can do over the summer to set them up for success in the next grade." It provides tools, tips, and resources to do just that, and it is also available in Spanish:
Antes de que terminen las clases, pregúntale al maestro en qué área le va bien a tu hijo, donde necesita más apoyo y qué puedes hacer en el hogar para prepararlo para el siguiente grado. Obtén el Chequeo Académico una nueva herramienta de aprendizaje (gratuita) para el verano.
