Summer learning is also appropriate for all students to accelerate learning. This strategy is particularly important in the summer of 2021 as states, districts, and schools seek to curtail potential learning loss from the COVID-19 pandemic.  \nThis planning guide was inspired by the investment that Tennessee has made in summer learning through the summer Read to be Ready program and recent legislation targeted at COVID-19 related learning loss. The guide was specifically developed to assist districts participating in the Tennessee Rural Acceleration and Innovation Network (TRAIN) as they began to plan for their summer learning camps.  \nThis guide should be used to assist education leaders in thinking through, planning for, and making the decisions that will ensure opportunities are successful for students, families, and teachers. The planning guide begins with an overview of recent research findings that highlight effective small group and summer learning practices. It then provides space for leaders to focus on some of the most important questions, decisions, and next steps to implement high-quality summer learning opportunities.  \nIntroduction .......................................................................................................................................................... 2  \nResearch on Summer Learning ............................................................................................................................. 3  \nPlanning for Summer Learning .............................................................................................................................. 4  \nCommunication of Summer Learning ................................................................................................................... 9  \nPlanning for Content ........................................................................................................................................... 10  \nSchedule for Summer Learning ........................................................................................................................... 12  \nResources ............................................................................................................................................................ 16  \nResearch on Summer Learning  \nThe Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University has released research-based guidance on how schools and school districts should address learning loss related to the COVID-19 pandemic. They have also created a resource for designing tutoring programs in particular. Some of the most relevant aspects are noted below. These can serve as useful guides to inform your planning for summer learning programs.  \nFocus   \n● Losses are likely to be larger in math than ELA, but math losses will potentially be more responsive to intervention efforts.  \nRelationships  \n● Knowing that many students have faced incredible difficulty during the pandemic, districts and schools can help students and communities heal over the summer. Research has shown that strong, supportive, and sustained relationships with adults in schools consistently predict children’s capacity for resilient behavior, even in the face of traumatic experiences.  \nPersonnel   \n● Extended learning time interventions, including weeklong acceleration academies staffed with highly effective teachers, show strong evidence of effectiveness. A targeted recruitment effort is important to ensure the most effective teachers are incentivized to teach during the summer is key.  \nGroup Size   \n● Teaching extra content without changing the degree to which students are getting extra support is unlikely to be successful. Small class sizes and intervention are critical.  \nCurr","cbCaimTfvmxof8Fu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimTfvmxof8Fu","pdf",731861,16,"English","# Introduction\n# Research on Summer Learning\n# Planning for Summer Learning\n# Communication of Summer Learning\n# Planning for Content\n# Schedule for Summer Learning\n# Resources","[{\"question\":\"Why is summer learning planning particularly emphasized for 2021?\",\"answer\":\"The guide explains that 2021 is important because states, districts, and schools aim to reduce potential learning loss caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the guide say about which subjects may show larger learning losses?\",\"answer\":\"It notes that learning losses are likely to be larger in math than in ELA, while math losses may be more responsive to intervention.\"},{\"question\":\"How should districts decide which students to prioritize for summer learning programs?\",\"answer\":\"The guide recommends using provided tables and starting with students most at risk of learning loss to estimate participation, focus recruitment, and determine staffing needs before expanding access.\"}]","Summer Learning Planning Guide - March 2021 | PDF"]
