Short notes
Routines for learning: When parents get involved in learning, children are more successful. Help your child get off to a good start in school by creating habits like these at home:
Remind
your child of rules such as “reading before play or television”. That shows them that learning is top
priority. Also, give them a comfortable
place to read or draw without distractions.
Make time, next year,
each day to look over school papers
with your child. Be on the look out for
notes from their teachers, and mark important dates on the calendar.
Sharing at dinnertime is an activity
that can go beyond passing the platter.
Ask your child to think of one
new thing they learned during the day.
It might spark an interesting conversation among everyone at the dinner
table.
Be sure to go to the
Public Library this summer!
Fun Activity.
Waiting
Games
Waiting
has become a part of our everyday lives.
The next time you hear, “how much longer?” try one of these ideas to
occupy your children.
Play
word games. Start with a simple word
like “up”. Take turns thinking of opposites
(down).
Work
on counting forward and backward. For an
extra challenge, have your child try counting from a number other than 1. For instance, you say, “7” they would
continue “8,9,10”
Try
an alphabet search. Look around the room
and find the letter “A” on a sign or poster.
Take turns finding the letters in order until you reach “Z”.
Remember
read to or with your child all summer!
