Summer Health
Summer is the perfect opportunity to rest and reset. Academics are an important pursuit over the summer break because brain drain is real. In finding a good balance to support great mental health and physical health, summer break is an opportune time to work on these skills. Here is one example of a balanced summer schedule for your scholar:
- 10-35% Summer learning
- 20-35% Exercise and movement
- 45-65% Play or whatever lights up your scholar’s heart
