Hi, Just wanted to get an idea of how much academic work everyone does at home during the summer? My kids are best friends with a family across the street that does several hours a day (parent driven, not child led. The kids resist it but parents push it.) I think it's mostly a cultural expectation of their household.
My kids are in a GT classroom and work very hard all year. They like to run, ride bikes, build forts, etc. in the summer. They do read every evening.
Beyond that, I guess I'm feeling guilty and comparing.....oops. Do you all push the kids to spend time daily on academic skills during break? I know the majority of GT kids would probably not resist this too much so maybe most of you don't have to push it?
Just wondering...
Thanks!
