=Suggestions for Summer Learning=
 * ===**Math: Tenmarks Summer Math Program. Complete one hour (or more) each week while you earn rewards that you've agreed upon with your parents! How cool is that?**===
 * ===Writing: Each week spend a few minutes writing (and illustrating with a drawing or photo) a paragraph about what's happening with your summer using your Google Docs account. You'll be using Google Docs often next year.===
 * ===Reading: Participate in the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County's READ ON! Summer Reading Program. Visit the library weekly to find fresh reads. Information is available at the Anderson Branch.===
 * ===Other: Play games of strategy with family members and friends such as chess, Quirkle, Banana-grams, etc, either online or offline.===
 * ===Other: Wear sunglasses and sunscreen (SPF 30+) outdoors and re-apply every 90 minutes!===
