晨诵文本:【美文赏析】----第一课时
Each new school year brings fresh reminders of what educators call the summer learning gap.Some call it the summer learning setback.Put simply,it means the longer kids are out of school,the more they forget.The only thing they might gain is weight.Recent studies show that children gain weight more quickly in the summer vacation than when they are in school.
Most American schools follow a traditional ninemonth calendar.Students get winter and spring breaks and about ten weeks of summer vacation.Some schools follow a yearround calendar.They hold classes for about eight weeks at a time,with a few weeks off in between.But many experts point out that the number of class days in a yearround school is generally the same as in a traditional school.
Last year,a study at Ohio State University reported that yearround students did not learn any more than other students.Lead researcher Paul von Hippel said “yearround schools don’t really solve the problem of the summer learning setback.They simply spread it out across the year”.
Across the country,the research shows that students from poor families fall farther behind over the summer vacation than other students.Experts say this can be prevented.They note that many schools and local governments offer the programs that can help.
But calling them “summer schools” could be a problem.The director of the summer learning center at Johns Hopkins,Ron Fairchild,recently wrote about this issue on his blog.
