How Can I Stay Ahead of Summer Learning Loss?
Summer learning loss is the decline in skills that children commonly experience over summer break. As reading skills are fundamental to many areas of school, losing them over the summer can affect a student's overall academic experience and negatively impact confidence and motivation.
With outstanding books at the right level of challenge, plus the structure and support to practice key skills, our students find it easier to avoid learning loss—and even make substantial reading gains.
Decades of Excellence in Reading Instruction
The Institute of Reading Development offers programs in partnership with colleges and universities. Over the last 54 years, we’ve worked with more than 200 academic institutions to inspire over 3 million students to become skilled, enthusiastic readers.
