Summer Skills started over 30 years ago when three moms realized over 30 years ago that thee weren't good options to help their kids retain what they learned the previous year over the summer months, so they created their own Review Books which evolved into SummerSkills. Less screen time and more time for review and education is just what students need most. Summer Skills books are designed to help sharpen their knowledge and review what they have learned as they prepare for the next school year. Millions of students have benefited from our mixed-skills approach, which is proven to aid in retention and understanding. In just a few 20-30 minute sessions a week, students can reinforce previously learned academic skills without additional screen time. Summer Skills books meet the standards of all 50 states as well as the Common Core. Our books are available for pre-k through high school for math, language arts, foreign language and more.
