Do Sessions and Weeks Build Upon One Another? Will My Child Be Behind If We Miss Days?

If you think about the snowman analogy I gave earlier, than you probably know the answer. However, I also realize that this is summer, after all, and that there are many other activities and opportunities for your child to learn and grow – including VACATIONS! (Something that cannot be underestimated!) Therefore, I make a conscious effort to make sure all activities can be entered each day with minimal reliance on the previous day’s activities. However, the more days your child can attend in a row, the better. If I were focusing solely on “skills” rather than “concepts”, this would be much easier. However, knowledge of skills without conceptual understanding is very limiting, and for your child to further his/her mathematical abilities, he/she must have first built that solid conceptual foundation.
