TESTIMONIAL to JUST MATH summer programs:

"We'd like to schedule another summer math program with you for XXXXXXX to prepare him for eighth grade Algebra.  XXXXXXX has been doing exceptionally well this year in Pre-Algebra -- I don't know exactly what or how you taught him to "Think Math" but it worked and we'd like him to have the same jump start for 8th grade as he did for 7th grade "  (Richard, 3/18/2011)

During summer 2010, we worked with this student to prepare him forthe transition from grade 6 mathematics to grade 7 Pre-Algebra.  After receiving the above email, we welcomed this student back for summer 2011.  During summer 2011, this student was able to review Pre-Algebra core content and learn the core content inherent in the 1st 9weeks of his upcoming Algebra1  class (2011-2012).

It goes without saying that summer instructional programs benefit student achievement. However to support this claim, I will provide research that has been cited:

Research by Cooper et al. (2000) revealed that summer programs focusing on remedial, accelerated, or enriched learning had a positive impact on the knowledge and skills of participants.

 In 2005, Dr. Ruth Peters gave suggestions on how to "block the seasonal brain drain." She suggested that summer is the perfect time to fill in learning gaps and to forge forward by way of enrichment. In the words of Dr. Ruth Peters, "Think of summer as a teachable moment!"
