Today’s ClickSchooling review is titled “Watermelon Math.” Summer is definitely watermelon time – and in fact, National Watermelon Day is August 3rd. We have some fun ideas and activities for how to celebrate with young children (that the whole family will enjoy) in UniversalPreschool.com’s Learning Calendar (created by yours truly and friends) that you can learn more about and purchase.
Oh, and you can see a sample of some of the Learning Calendar activities for the month of July.
Get it today – and you can instantly have fun ideas for celebrating Moon Day (today), Pied Piper Day (July 22), National Hot Dog Day (July 23), Thread the Needle Day (July 25), and Beatrix Potter’s Birthday (July 28)!

ClickScholar Fran Wisniewski recommended this website sponsored by the National Watermelon Promotion Board that provides free, downloadable/printable math activity lessons featuring a cartoon watermelon character named, J. Slice. The math problems and activities include fun facts about watermelon and include games, recipes and skill builders.
When you get to the site you’ll see a menu of the lessons that are sorted by grade level. Click on any one and the pdf file opens to print out.
When you are finished with the watermelon math lessons, look at the menu on the left side of the landing page to access more watermelon-themed learning activities in other subjects including:
- Language Arts
- Geography
- Science
- And more!
Using these materials, you could create and entire Watermelon Unit Study this week! Fun!
