"Summer Bridge Activities Contains:
Fun, skill-based activities in reading, writing, arithmetic, and language arts with additional activities in geography and science to keep your child busy, happy, and learning!

A Reading Book List based on the Accelerated Reader Program.
Incentive Contracts to encourage summer learning and reward your child's efforts. "Discover Something New" lists of creative things to do are found on the back of each SBA Incentive Contract Calendar for when your child says the inevitable: "What can I do? I'm bored."
Comprehensive Word Lists, which contain words to sound, read and spell, challenge children and encourage them to build their vocabulary. SBA also contains a Fraction Table, Napier's Bones, Yardstick, Inch Rulers, Centimeter Rulers, and Meterstick to use for many of the activities.
Tear-out answer pages to help correct your child's work.
An official Certificate of Completion to be awarded for successfully completing the workbook."

For the parent, there are "10 Helpful Hints on How to Maximize Summer Bridge Activities." This special edition also includes "Building Better Bodies and Behavior," which are designed "to help your children develop not only their minds this summer, but their bodies and character as well."
