Better Concentration
Looking
for a fun way to improve your youngster’s concentration? Try this quick game. The first player makes one motion, like
clapping or spinning around. The second
person copies him and adds another movement.
Continue adding new motions until someone forget the sequence. The last player to get it right starts a new
game

a habit.
Encourage
your child to treat studying as a daily assignment, not just something they do
the evening before a test. For example,
they might study 15 minutes every night on math facts. After they finish their homework they can
spend a little time reviewing their notes and handouts.
A recipe for Respect.
Ava listens quietly when her teacher
talks. Ben claps for each performer at
his piano recital. Joe includes everyone
in the game at recess. These children show respect for others. Here’s how you can encourage your child to do
the same. Demonstrate:
Your child will learn respectful behavior by watching the way you treat others. When they make a mistake, for instance, gently tell them what they did wrong— and out of earshot of others. Also let them see you respect ideas and beliefs that are different from your own. For example, point out that you're happy a friend is voting in an election even though you each favor a different candidate.
Notice:
When you see your child acting respectfully, let them know that you’ve noticed!
