Thank you parents and students for making my half-year with you so wonderful. Here are some sites you may want to remember for the summer, so you can review your subjects and even get a little ahead!
http://www.time4writing.com/ Offered by the same company that brings you spellingcity.com, Time4Writing has 8 week courses in writing for just $99. They start at 2nd grade level and go through high school. Each course is taught online by degreed writing teachers. It may be a great resource for your child to become more skilled and creative in his or her writing.
http://storybird.com/ This site is awesome, providing kids with a wealth of professional illustrations to add to their own stories. Your child will have his or her own storybird account, begun in class, that he or she can use over the summer.
