Online Resources for Enrichment

Students look forward to the summer because they want a break from the toil of rigorous, brain wrenching activities. However, too long of a break is counterproductive. Students need some mind provoking activity to keep their learning alive during the summer months. Educational experiences like visiting a museum or taking a trip to the library to check out a book can be profitable.

A great tool to utilize is the Internet. Interactive games and activities make learning and review fun. You’ll find limitless educational sources on the Internet for students to use, but to get started consider some of our teachers’ recommendations.
