Summer Holiday - Free Downloads

When children return to school after the holidays, it’s common for teachers to talk about the ‘summer slump’. This is the phenomenon where, after six weeks away from school, children have forgotten some of the key things they spent the last year painstakingly learning. This means that rather than moving on to new and exciting areas of the curriculum, the start of term is spent helping children back to the level they were at before the holidays.

We have found some simple reading, writing and math activities for different age groups to keep your child’s learning ticking over for when they start back at the end of August both refreshed, relaxed and ready to pick up their schoolwork just where they left off.

Here are a few fun free downloads that won’t feel like lessons, to you or your children.
