The Case Against Summer Vacation paragraph 4 & 5 revision

The paragraph connects the idea that students are the same as athletes or musicians; if the athletes or musicians performance suffers without practice, the students education will suffer without practice too. Paragraph 4 continues to say that the idyllic view of summer is not the same for underprivileged kids.

Paragraph 5 mentions Ron Fairchild and his organization being a small part of a larger movement that dramatizes how to "stop the summer slide by coordinating, expanding and improvising summer enrichment programs." It presents the idea that there is a lot of supporters like President Obama, who has created a national summer learning day to bring attention to the issue.
