[quote=Anonymous]My kid really loves math and writing but does not get enough of a challenge in school in math, and not enough opportunities to write. I thought it would be nice to get some at-home supplements for the summer (for her to do optionally, I'm not forcing her to sit down and do worksheets) that would give her a chance to expand her math knowledge and practice writing.

Anyone know of any *fun* supplements for this? We do have some Beast Academy books and she does like the characters and stories, but she's done with the 1st grade ones and I am debating buying the next level, as they are pricy and while she likes them, they may just be too similar to what she does at school?

And no idea how to incorporate writing opportunities. She's a voracious reader with a good vocabulary for a 1st grader (not a great speller though, but improving). I was thinking some kind of project where she can write her own book would be cool -- maybe a guided project where she creates the pictures and the story and then puts it into a bound book? I think she'd love this but no idea where to find something like this.

If anyone has suggestions, please share! She's got camp and swimming this summer, so just looking for something she might enjoy doing on rainy days or on weekends to balance things out. Not some intensive program.[/quote]
