Do your kids do homework over summer break?

Hi there! I did not give her homework during summer
break. I just give her an acitivity for her to refresh
her mind in whatever subjects not all day.
I let her enjoy the summer vacation as a young kids.
Because I have a friend who was a professional saying
that when she was a child she did not experienced the
happiness in group or peers to her friends.
Her parents is so strict in terms of association with
friends in their community. She is a loner one.

we work on the issues he is having difficulty with. we do 15 minutes a day and he gets the first whole week right after school ends to do none of it. this summer we are working on telling time and some basic math facts he needs to commit to memory and tying shoes. that is enough. he needs to have fun too so we do that as well on my days off from babysitting.

I got my kid do everyday in summer,about 2 hours, but share 2 times.

My daughter home schools her children, she lives 2 miles from me and I help her all year with home schooling. They do lessons all year long. She does let them have breaks during holidays and even in summer they go on trips but being home schooled they are always learning. For instance today is Independence Day July 4th and we are all going this morning to an Independence Day Exhibit that honor's women Patriots of the American Revolution. Many were spies and others dressed as men, cut their hair and joined the army, some nursed wounded soldiers and others cooked and brought them food, others rode through the night with messages for troops and their leaders. The children will learn something and there is going to be food and drinks and rides for the children so they get to learn while celebrating our nations independence and having fun.

My kids, both in high school, have summer reading lists. So they do have homework from school to do. They would read anyway just because they enjoy it.
I did used to get workbooks for my kids when they were young. They enjoyed working in them when they couldn't be outside.

My son went to the tutor all summer long...twice a week. He had learning disabilities.

I do this as well. It's of course easier to do when the siblings are napping & hubby is at work but we work in workbooks & read stories thru the library summer reading program.

Most definitely a good idea! IT helps her keep all her skills fresh. I used to do the same thing with my kids. We also hit all the museums and zoos we could. I also did my own "summer reading program" I set up my own reward system for reading books. It wasn't unusual for them to be sitting out reading a book in the hammack in the afternoons -- of course that was after they had completed their chores!

Not homework homework, but my son is still learning this summer. He brought the remainder of his Math workbook with him on vacation, but he admitted that he has not been working on it like he is supposed to be. He has been reading a lot and he is doing math without realizing he is doing it. He has been helping his aunt cook a lot this summer, so he is learning measurements and fractions.

From what I hear, it is a wise move to do some workbooks over the summer. Keeps the kids' skills up. I'm glad she thinks they are fun.
