Are you concerned about the summer academic slide and want your student to be working on a little bit of math each day to push their thinking? I have created summer workbooks for gifted students. The workbooks are designed to help students push their thinking and communication skills with a page a day during the summer months.
The workbook is designed for students to solve open ended problems in more than one way, find as many solutions as possible to push their thinking, understand algebraic equations and create their own story problems.
One page can last up to half an hour of work and students cannot race through the packet as soon as possible if the parent asks for multiple solution pathways. The workbook pages are very similar to the problems that we do on whiteboards in partners in SAGE, which is our gifted math program in the Issaquah School District.
They can be done in partners at home, are great for teams of students who want to stretch their learning, and want to collaborate.
