Summer Bridge Workbook Grades 5–6: Practicing Fractions, Ratios, Reading and Grammar Skills to Move Confidently from Elementary to Middle School by Alice Grant

The summer between 5th and 6th grade decides how confident your child feels on day one. Three months away from math and reading can quietly erase a full grade level of progress — and sixth grade doesn't slow down for anyone playing catch-up. This workbook keeps your child sharp over the break, then moves them a step ahead, so middle school feels familiar instead of overwhelming. It's built in two clear parts. Part 1 locks in the fifth-grade essentials — fractions, decimals, place value, reading comprehension, and grammar. Part 2 previews the exact sixth-grade skills that trip students up first: ratios and proportional thinking, the number system, expressions and equations, and closer analytical reading. Just fifteen focused minutes a day keeps momentum going all summer. Inside this workbook: Two full sections — Grade 5 review and Grade 6 preview — across math and English language arts An answer key for every card, so checking work takes seconds A glossary and a standards checklist to track exactly what's been mastered Read more
