According to studies in the Journal of Educational Research, children can lose approximately 2.6 months of knowledge if not provided with any educational stimulation over long breaks. Educational enrichment programs such as the Kumon Method are a proven way to keep students’ minds engaged and focused on retaining knowledge year round, especially between grade levels.

Summer is an optimal time to start a supplemental education program such as Kumon to ensure children do not fall behind in school during long breaks. Kumon’s tailored math and reading programs are tailored to each student with short, daily assignments and consistent practice that build a thorough understanding of topics, strong work ethics, concentration, and self-learning. Students work at their own pace, strengthening each skill before moving on to the next. Through repetition, students gain confidence, build skills, retain vital information and begin each school year fully prepared and even ahead of their peers.

This May, Plymouth Kumon Learning Center will offer free enrollment to new students. Parents should contact Plymouth Kumon Learning Center for more details.

From counting to calculus and basic phonics to advanced reading comprehension, students of all grade levels progress at a pace that’s right for them, while they develop a love of learning. Call 763-544-6284 or visit http://www.kumon.com/plymouth-mn for more information.
