Around the world, summer vacation means
long days, sunshine, swimming, sleeping in and, most importantly, no school.
Hundreds of years ago, students took the
summer off to help their parents in the fields. Today, though, summers are full
of fun—no work.
A summer vacation means so many opportunities for kids: extra classes, sports,
hobbies or catching up on studies.
If
you're lucky, during the weeks away from school, you can volunteer, travel or
go to a camp. It's time to do a part-time job to learn a new skill. You may
hang out with friends all day. Some kids just kick off their shoes and jump
into rivers and swimming pools.
If you're not so lucky, summer vacation may
mean summer school—a long, hot summer inside the classroom.
Whatever your plans, make this summer a
good one. Take on a project. Learn something! Help someone! Make this summer
one to remember.
