CK-12 Foundation, a non-profit organization with an educational website that provides high-quality online educational materials for students and teachers, has announced its new FREE summer program, BrainFlex, available on desktop and as an app for mobile devices.
While children look forward to the summer as time away from schooling, parents and teachers often grow concerned that a lack of educational stimuli will contribute to what is known as the “summer slide” – the common decline in students’ academic skills over the summer break. The BrainFlex online tool allows students to build their math and science skills with daily practice. BrainFlex is a no-brainer because it is:
- Free to join
- Self-paced. BrainFlex features a series of tools and lessons students can take whenever the mood strikes.
- Versatile. BrainFlex covers a wide range of math and science topics for students of any age.
- Customized. Pick the subjects you want to study, practice anytime & anywhere, use unique tools to track your progress.
- Trackable. With BrainFlex, students and teachers can easily track progress on individual subjects
Teachers & parents can use BrainFlex to help their student prepare for concepts they’ll see in the coming year, or review concepts they’ve already learned. It’s a great way to make sure students are set up for success year-round.
Parents and teachers who are interested in learning more about or signing up for the BrainFlex free summer lessons online can visit www.ck12.org/summer.
