Join host Bill Williams as he explores the challenges of the “summer slide”—a seasonal learning gap some students may encounter during the summer. Without regular practice, academic skills, especially in math, reading, and writing, can fade over time. As a result, teachers often spend the early weeks of fall reviewing key concepts to help students get back on track. In today’s podcast, we talk with educators Dr. Amanda Smoak and Andrea Bishop about the causes of summer slide, strategies to address it, and practical ways parents and guardians can help their students stay sharp and confident year-round.
