Get a Head Start to Higher Grades

(MS) - All good things must come to an end, including summer vacation. The start of the new school year looms just over the horizon. However, it's not uncommon for students to forget just about everything they've learned during the previous term.

Teachers from grade school to grad school often have to devote valuable class time to review what students have already learned. Standardized tests like the ACT and SAT examine juniors and seniors on material from their underclass years. Many college students may not even be fortunate enough to get such a refresher course.

But that doesn't mean that children should hit the books all summer. Rather, a little study time each day can keep the mental cobwebs away, which equals saved time and better grades all year long.

Cliffs Quick Reviews® from Cliffs Notes provide students with efficient study guides to more than 40 topics, from global history to grammar to statistics. With tear-out pocket guides, quizzes, final exams, resource guides and glossaries, the guides allow students to quickly and easily review important class subjects without missing any summer fun and games.

The series is also valuable for parents. At a time when many parents are tightening the purse strings, they may no longer be able to afford tutors or test prep classes. Now they can study right along with their children and feel free to offer homework help without fear of running into an algorithm unaware.

In today's competitive education climate, a little time spent reviewing the previous year's classwork can certainly go a long way toward helping your child improve his or her grades this year and beyond. BS037812
