Answer 1

Www. blackrocket. com/online/pra I figure let them create video games instead of just playing them. Plus keeps them busy while we figure out social distancing and they are bored.

Good luck! I also make them read so much each week or I confiscate their electronics.  

Answer 2

We do a summer learning schedule. On days we are home we still do some online school and writing. I would be happy to PM what we do. I have a 12th, 8th, 6th, and 3rd grader. We homeschool the youngest 2 and the older 2 are in public school.

My 9 year old is learning Spanish online. It’s full immersion with live one on one instruction. kidsclubspanishschool. com

@roselani Awesome I will definitely show my 9yr old daughter Taylor. Her brother was in Spanish this past year and I’ve been looking for a way to get her back not it.  

Answer 4

I would just buy them a summer bridge workbook for their grade level. A few pages each day, pay them in some way if it’s a battle.

Agree with @scumble4835 Parkman I get a bridging book and a cursive, handwriting book and also some good books to read. Mine spends 20 mins on each d Monday-Thursday. Bridging 20 mins Handwriting/cursive 20 mins Reading 20 mins.  

Answer 5

I send mine to JJC summer college every year. That as well as the library programs are a no-go. I’m looking for activities as well. Virtual tours aren’t cutting the mustard anymore.
