The Sound of Ideas - Summer Slide
 
Play
 
School kids are counting down the days until the end of the school year. But many teachers are already dreading the start of the next school year - and all the time they'll have to spend re-teaching the material students forget over the course of the summer. How can kids stay engaged during the summer? Let's talk about how the slip-n-slide can share some time with preventing the "summer slide."
