A Message from Terry Closing the Learning Gaps this Summer To every parent and caregiver out there with a young student learning at home or hybrid—thank you for all you’re doing. We know the disrupted classroom experience has been challenging. Your dedication has been an inspiration to us and your loved ones.

At Learning Without Tears, we have doubled our efforts to deliver on our most critical mission—ensuring successful learning outcomes for all children. For more than 40 years, teachers and families have trusted our programs. From large public school districts to private and faith-based schools, and home school parents to occupational therapists, our research-based and time-tested educational solutions have been the answer.

This year, your students need support more than ever. Children have potentially lost a year’s worth of focused learning and school experiences. To help reverse the loss of critical literacy skills, we have engineered innovative new solutions to keep students engaged and having fun learning at home.

• We’ve added bundles of our hands-on materials that are ideal for home. They are packaged for individual use with step-by-step instructions and free resources to support you.

• We’ve added Reading & Writing Boost, perfect for summer! It provides K–5 students with everything they need to help them be ready for learning in the fall.

We know your time is limited, so to make finding the right solution for your child quick and easy, we have grouped them by age and topic. You’ll find materials for handwriting, basic math, summer reading support, fine and gross motor skill development, and essential keyboarding.

We are here to help you help your child succeed. Please visit our website for hundreds of free resources and how-to videos.

Thank you for all that you do!

Sincerely,

Terry Nealon, CEO

Reading & Writing

Summer Reading & Writing Boost A much-needed summer break is just around the corner. As you make your plans, be sure to carve out time for summer reading and writing to prevent the summer slide or learning loss created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Studies show that you can make up that loss and set up learners for success with engaging reading and writing activities.

Learning Without Tears has created a fun and easy solution to help keep your learners on track. All the pieces are bundled together for easy use and storage. Here’s what’s included: Visit LWTears.com/families for more details!

Books

Building Writers

Grade-appropriate, trusted trade books allow learners to discover new worlds while practicing reading.

Learners get supplemental writing practice in one activity book.

Building Writers offers structured practice to develop narrative, informative, and opinion writing skills.

Writing Journal Grade-level journals offer an organized tool for reading response and handwriting practice. Journal writing helps children process feelings, build writing skills, and communicate their ideas.

At-Home Instructions and Tips Each bundle comes with instructions, including tips for engagement before, during, and after reading.

Summer Reading and Writing Suggestions

Dedicate 30 minutes for reading daily.

Choose appropriate level books.

Learners who read at least 30 minutes a day encounter more vocabulary and build important reading skills.

Select appropriately leveled, interesting books that are not frustratingly too difficult to read or too easy. Our books are divided by grade level. Select the level that is just right for your child.

Emergent Writing

Pre-K

From coloring and drawing to pre-writing with capitals and lowercase, students are given a strong early literacy foundation, preparing them for the rigors of elementary school and the years ahead.

Our emergent writing program eases young children through their first steps on their writing journeys. A wide variety of products helps build prewriting and emergent writing skills in a developmentally appropriate way with engaging, hands-on, and play-based activities.

Activity Books Our emergent writing workbooks help students learn literacy skills, and child-friendly language makes letter and number formation easy: • Unique gray crayon stroke disappears when children trace over it • Illustrations promote left-to-right directionality • Social-emotional activities develop school readiness

BIG LINE

• Color, number, and shape lessons develop crayon and pencil grip Teach children pre-writing and capitals with My First School Book and then naturally progress into lowercase letters with My First Lowercase Book.

Upcoming Workshop Support Creative Ways to Boost Writing Skills Over the Summer The goal of this workshop is to share how you can use a grade level Building Writer’s book, reading book, and writing journal to use with your child over the summer to boost their drawing and writing skills in preparation for the upcoming school year. You will discover how exposing children to literacy enrichment and quality writing resources will help build a bridge for children to succeed in the fall. Reading is essential for writing success, so we will explore how to connect reading and writing activities.

You will identify the different writing genres that children use, and how reading, talking, and engaging in summer activities will inspire children to explore these different areas of writing using meaningful materials.

Prepare Your Child for the Upcoming School Year with Fun, Multisensory Learning Activities You can help your child get ready for the upcoming school year with fun, multisensory activities using the Individual Student Manipulative Pack, which is included with registration! This workshop will provide training on how to use engaging, hands-on manipulatives to teach good habits for forming capital letters and numbers. Strategies will also be provided to use your manipulatives to boost other school readiness skills like taking turns, sequencing, and drawing a person.
