Learning Guide for Parents
Researchers have found that students statistically score lower on standardized tests administered after summer break. This decrease in academic proficiency is commonly referred to as the “summer brain drain,” and summer camp Dana Point programs are looking to reverse this trend.
1.) Tailor activities to their interests. Dana Point summer camp parents should seek to find opportunities for their child to explore a hobby or interest. Leverage do-it-yourself or at-home activities to maximize family time and interactions. According to the learning guide, students are often unable to control their learning, both the pace and the content, during the school year and the summer represents a unique time where children can express themselves freely by having time to explore their own interests.
2.) Take advantage of fun (and educational) summer programs. For working parents or those looking for out-of-the-house options, Summer Camp Dana Point programs can be a practical solution. For an added academic boost, STEAM-related camps offer children a welcoming and problem-solving based environment to continue learning, but in a dynamic and hands-on way. Parents should do their due diligence and research summer camps in the Dana Point area that best fit their child’s personality and learning style.
