Summer Learning Plans
Our four or six week plan for bringing movement-based learning to your summer tutoring program.
MATH ACTIVITIES
By rotating through stations, students will develop number sense and practice skills for place value, fractions, time, money, geometry, and solving real-world problems. Using the Jump & Learn Multiplication activities, the following specific goals for multiplication will be achieved.
-
Rising 3rd Graders 4-Week Program
In one hour a day, four days a week, students will master multiplication by 0s, 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 6s, and 10s.
-
Rising 3rd Graders 6-Week Program
In addition to 4-week program goals, students will also master multiplication by 7s, and 8s.
-
Rising 4th and 5th Graders 4-Week Program
In one hour a day, four days a week, students will master multiplication by 0s, 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, 5s, 6s, 7s, 8s, and 10s.
-
Rising 4th and 5th Graders 6-Week Program
In addition to 4-week program goals, students will also master multiplication by 9s, 11s, and 12s.
Jump & Learn Multiplication marries trauma-informed and math education by making the process of learning multiplication active, fun, engaging, and fast—all while developing positive self-esteem. Students are introduced to multiplication problems from 0s to 12s, one multiple at a time. Sufficient practice problems allow students to develop multiplication confidence. Positive affirmations adorn the multiplication practice pages.
Students are encouraged to begin and end each practice page by reciting a positive affirmation while engaging in cross-body movements. Students document their mastery of each multiple by placing stickers on their personal Progress Reports. Upon completion of the program, the student places a large sticker on the Certificate of Completion. Challenge problems, application problems, mixed multiplication problems, and pre- and post-tests are also included.
READING ACTIVITIES
To catapult reading fluency, include 15 minutes of Jump & Learn Words activities daily in your summer reading program.
-
Rising 1st and 2nd Graders 4-Week Program
In four days a week, your students will develop fluency with 112 Dolch sight words.
-
Rising 3rd-5th Graders 4-Week Program
In four days a week, your students will develop fluency with 203 Dolch sight words.
Jump & Learn Words offers enjoyable practice with 203 Dolch sight words. Students trace, search for and spell each word. Seven additional questions are included for each word to strengthen a student’s word knowledge. Word lists and pre-and post-tests are included.
Including physical activity makes the process of learning fun! To speed word recognition and reading fluency, use the book along with the Jump & Learn method! Large words with bright background colors are displayed on the ground, allowing students to repeatedly jump on each word while saying the word out loud!
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of activities are included in summer learning programs?
When educators use Math & Movement in their summer learning programs, activities focus on movement and kinesthetic strategies. Students can hop, step, crawl, trace, and even dance as they practice math concepts on our heavy-duty floor mats! Math & Movement goes beyond filling out worksheets by allowing students to solve problems by moving their bodies on our materials.
Additionally, educators will receive access to our online activity database, which features detailed instructions for games to play on each mat!
Why are summer learning programs important?
Summer learning programs are important because they prevent students from losing the academic progress they made during the school year while on summer break. These programs also keep students academically engaged, help them retain and reinforce skills, and prepare them for the upcoming school year.
How do summer learning programs prevent summer learning loss?
Summer learning programs prevent learning loss by providing continuous academic engagement. By participating in structured learning activities during the summer, students maintain and build upon the skills they developed during the school year. This consistent practice helps to reinforce knowledge and prevent regression. Better yet, kinesthetic activities make these lessons fun and easier to remember!
Are there different types of summer learning programs available?
Yes! Check out our three different summer learning kits outlined above. These summer learning kits are a great way to start incorporating movement into your program. You can also contact us for a customized kit to suit your program’s needs.
Why should I include movement in my summer learning program?
Children love to move—and they need to move! Too much sitting results in decreased circulation and a subsequent decrease in concentration. Movement stimulates the release of dopamine and noradrenaline in the brain, which boosts learning and positive feelings! Plus, summer is a great time to teach children the importance of staying active.
Why should I add Math & Movement to my summer learning program?
Math & Movement harnesses a child’s natural inclination for activity and turns it into enthusiasm for acquiring academic skills. Thus, Math & Movement motivates students while simultaneously strengthening their skills and allowing them to have fun while learning.

“Before Math & Movement, our kids were really struggling with the concept of having to do math…Our kids felt like math was scary…Now, I don’t even know if they realize they’re doing math…They absolutely have a different viewpoint. They feel like it is something they can learn.”
Fayth Jenkins
Principal, Suncoast School for Innovative Studies
“As a dual language school with specific needs that were not being met with existing methods, we worked with Math & Movement to custom-design floor mats and other resources to support our curriculum. Our entire school is now equipped with kinesthetic learning materials that are fully aligned with our educational objectives. We are extremely grateful to Math & Movement for their support and flexibility. Thanks to these materials, our students experience significant benefits in their learning every day.”

“We have used Math & Movement for over five years, and the results have been remarkable. The mats are durable and require no maintenance. The teacher who used the materials in nearly every lesson has the highest math scores in the school. Math & Movement played a key role in transforming us from a school in need of improvement to one in good standing.”
Eva Williams
Former Principal, Van Duyn Elementary School

“It’s an amazing program. I love that it’s supplemental to our core curriculum. It’s a really nice springboard and seems to support our math in focus series in a way that gets kids tired out at the same time!”

Former Principal, Woodlawn Elementary School
Current Deputy Superintendent, Schenectady City School District
“As a special education teacher, I love using these mats in our general education classroom. Every child is engaged and excited to learn their multiplication tables. When I bring a mat out the whole class cheers. Thank you for making math more accessible not just for my students, but every child in our classroom.”
