Summer break is a sun-drenched flurry of activities, but before we know it, the first day of school will be here. These summer activity books, ranging from preschool to 5th grade, will help your child enter the new school year with confidence.
The Weekly Reader: Summer Express workbooks allow kids to either review the previous year's materials or ladder up to the next. Each workbook is designed to include a mix of math, language arts, and reading activities — and is aligned with nationwide Common Core standards. (Quick reminder: The Common Core is a set of state standards outlining what kids should know in each grade.)
