Eight-year-old Keran was excited to learn how to square multiples of 5 last summer. His mother reported that he felt good being able to do some mental math that his teacher had to check with a calculator.
Sometimes, the enjoyment of math is hampered by a lack of specific skills. The Summer Brain Camp at Oxford Learning begins with a placement test that identifies skill gaps and gives us a road map to address them properly. A program designed to match each child’s specific needs ensures your child will build an understanding of math basics while learning insider tips to build math confidence.
Beat the Summer Brain Drain
For children to feel confident in math, they need mastery of certain core material. A two-month break may wipe out many of the gains made during the school year; with COVID-19 closures, the loss of knowledge will be even greater. Math Camp is an easy way to maintain momentum and even gain ground. A flexible schedule means that parents can work around camping trips and other commitments while ensuring that their child will return to school with good retention of last year’s concepts, ready to take on the new material with enthusiasm!

When test time rolls around, students can find studying stressful. But it doesn’t have to be: with the right skills, students can change studying from stressful to stress-free!

Expert Report Card Help in Winnipeg Linden Woods
The next school year milestone is almost here: progress reports and report cards.
The first progress report or report card can be stressful: parents and students alike worry about whether this year's grades will be higher or lower.
Regardless of how close or far away the next formal reporting cycle is, parents and students of all ages—from early elementary to senior high school—can get ahead of potential report card stress by regularly checking in on their progress at school.
Stay Informed!
Waiting for report cards in Winnipeg Linden Woods to drop to check in on school progress can let school struggles go unchecked. But staying proactive as the weeks progress helps parents and students track school progress, reducing the surprises on the first report card.
Here’s how parents and students in Winnipeg Linden Woods can stay ahead of potential report card surprises:
Track School Work: pay attention not only to test marks but also to grades on homework and assignments as they come home.
After-school Involvement: Parents do not have to actively help with homework to be supportive. Creating a set homework schedule and staying close by during homework time can help identify subject-specific struggles.
Open Communication With School: Use available school resources to stay in the loop with teachers and school administrators, tracking assignments, school events, and even attendance.
Recognize School Struggles Early
School struggles don’t appear overnight. Students often have early indicators that comprehension and academic performance might be lagging. Often, behaviour at home can be a signal that something at school needs attention.
Look for:
Poor attitudes toward school
Frustration during homework time
Reluctance to discuss school
Increased school absences
If any of these signs are present, reach out to your child’s teacher early, rather than waiting for a formal reporting period.
Tips for Handling Report Cards in Winnipeg Linden Woods
The first report card or progress report is not the final verdict on grades for the year; it is more of a warning signal. If something seems off, take the next steps now to get back on track before the next report card arrives.
Look at Trends, Not Just Grades. Compare current marks to last year’s. Are current grades up or down? Is it a new struggle or an ongoing trend?
Keep Years in Context: certain grades are transition years and can be more challenging for even the best students, such as Grade 3 or beginning Grade nine at a local Winnipeg high school.
Focus on Comments: grades show what happened, but teacher comments explain why. Teachers observe students in class while they learn, take tests, and interact with other students. Their insights in the comments provide valuable direction for next steps.
