HOW TEACHERS CAN USE THESE SUMMER LITERACY RESOURCES:

These resources are best for students in grades 2-4, and I suggest mapping out the time you will be teaching (summer school) or tutoring and combining these activities with things you have into themes. (Beach Week, Oceanography, Gardening, Bugs, etc). There are poems and writing prompts to go with a wide variety of topics to help you with comprehension, fluency, and writing.
