I created a schedule for my daughter to follow for the whole duration of her summer break (for everybody’s peace of mind 🙂 Her summer school break is from the end of June to the end of August. I realized I have to build a good routine for her to be productive and happy. Also, this will prevent her from just playing computer games and watching TV all day.
Below is her weekday schedule. If you have a 10-year old kid, feel free to follow the routine here or tweak some to your liking. Whatever suits best for your child and your work schedule.

In addition to the summer schedule, I also included the resource links of free worksheets that I am using for my child. The site is a super savior to me as it provides free exercises in various subjects such as Reading Comprehension, Math, Grammar, Vocabulary, & Science. And mommies, it is available for grade 1 to grade 5. You can check the free website resources link here I highly recommend it.
If you don’t have a printer at home, I included simple steps for you to delete the last page (which is the answer sheet) so that you can only show the pdf copy with questions. As for my daughter, she writes her answers in a separate notebook. And I mark them at night or after she has finished answering them.
Steps to delete the last page (which is the answer sheet) in the pdf file:
1. Open the pdf file by right clicking the mouse and selecting the ‘print preview’
2. Click ‘edit’ in the command bar and select ‘delete’
3. Save the new file with a new file name.

For parents looking for a dedicated tutor, there’s also available multilingual tutor service app like Tuex that offers flexible scheduling options.
For French lessons, I let my daughter watch Youtube videos and tutorials. Since she learned basic French when she was in grade 2, she can still easily picks up the words and phrases. As for her summer camp, I enrolled her in arts class to learn about weaving tapestry and embroidery. It’s a little different from the normal art class like painting and drawing and I am glad she likes it a lot.
Here’s the Youtube link to French lessons. I also bought a mini French book at Amazon. There are tons of books and exercises you can buy at Amazon. But I am a fan of freebies if they are available. 🙂
Later on (perhaps in August), I will get her a tutor so she can practice real conversation in French. I think it’s also an appropriate way to prepare her for French immersion class once we got a placement at her school.
Conclusion
Summer break should be fun and productive for your kids, and it should not cause havoc or anxiety in every family member. So it is important to create a summer routine for your kids so that they don’t waste their time drooling over to the computer screen the whole day. Also, creating a consistent summer routine can help build a good discipline and positive attitude towards learning.
