Discipleship
Start your home school day with prayer and Bible reading. This month's character virtue is Courage. http://www.kidsofintegrity.com/lessons/courage has some great Bible studies and lessons to help you instill this character quality in your child.
Math
Objectives:
1. Review previously learned concepts, reteaching where necessary.
2. Assess mastery of concepts learned this year.
In order to prevent "summer slide", you may want to do some review over the summer. The Singapore Math Primary Mathematics US Edition Extra Practice books are an excellent resource for reviewing all that was taught in A and B this year. These books can be found on the Singapore Math website as well as Christianbook.com.
Singapore Math Intensive Practice books are another great resource. These are challenging reviews of concepts learned and divided into A and B, so are not as attainable to complete over summer. Choose the grade level you just completed, or go back a level, but not up. Christianbook.com
Reading
Objectives:
1. Your student should aim to read for 30-40 minutes each home day.
2. Your student should write a 4-6 sentence summary (narration) that demonstrates comprehension of the book he/she is reading.
