Super Summer!

Now, I have some new "former 4th graders" and some new "future 4th graders". I hope all of you and your families are having a wonderful summer so far. I got to enjoy a trip to Colorado with my family, and now it is good to be home.

Several parents have asked for some summer activities to help keep their students' brains sharp! Here are a few possibilities:

*Participate in your local library's summer reading program!
*Play board games and card games with your family.
*Write letters or email messages to friends and family who live away from Omaha.
*Use a workbook like the ones here: http://www.summerbridgeactivities.org/ to help you review the skills you've learned.
*Play math games on your tablet, phone, or computer. Here are just a few good ones: Math Slicer App, Sushi Monster App, http://www.numbaland.com/, or https://www.varsitytutors.com/aplusmath .

And, of course, play and have fun!
