Summer Learning Packet 2023

At ASM, we believe that summer learning is very important to students’ futures. It helps to keep their academic skills sharp over the summer and it sets them up on the path for success for the new academic school year.

Learning assignments are provided for the following core subject areas:
● English Language Arts (1 task mandatory for all students & 1 task optional).
● Math (1 task mandatory for all students & 1 task optional).
● Science (mandatory for all students).
● Social Studies (mandatory for all students – assignment according to class level).

Completed assignments should be submitted to your subject teachers at the beginning of the academic year.

ASM’s Grade 5 – 11 students (G6-12 in 2023-24) have at least one MANDATORY summer learning assignment to be completed during the summer break, which will form one of their first grades on the English grade book for the academic year 2023-24.  

 

ASM’s English Summer Learning Assignments are designed to provide a supportive transition for students to the next academic year. The assignments will help students to keep their minds sharp and stimulated through the long summer break and enable them to practice, develop and refine their English reading and language skills.
