Ever wonder what the overachiever in school did on school break? I can tell you as I was that kid who always had the answer or ruined the curve by scoring 98% on a test. As a kid I used to play school forcing my little sister to do math problems over the summer. I used to painstakingly write out worksheets for her to complete and then grade them.
My sister should be grateful that we grew up in a time without the Internet and access to websites with printable worksheets. The papers would have been flying!
I was introduced to a great math worksheet website. www.DadsWorksheets.com
Unlike many printable websites EVERYTHING is FREE.
I am going to be spending a lot of time this summer on this website. No summer learning loss allowed here. The average child 2.6 months of Math skills are lost during the summer. Only 2 to 3 hours a week in the summer are needed to prevent this summer skill loss. My family is going to use Dad Worksheets to prevent the loss and help us get ahead before the next school year.
Most websites are very focused on a specific learning age. Dad Worksheets covers a vast set of math skills. There are worksheets from preschool to high school. My teenagers will not be safe from doing worksheets this summer along side their younger siblings.
We will be focusing on the foundation skills to strengthen their Math ability. With Dad Worksheets I will be spending less time looking for worksheets and more time working with my kids.
