Support Learning at Home
This year we are really hoping to push and encourage you to support learning at home. There are many things you can do as a parent that may not seem like a big deal, but you can actually have a huge impact on your child’s performance in school. Here are just a few things you can do to support learning at home.
Establish a Daily Family Routine
- Provide a quiet space, time, and materials for studying and reading.
- Assign chores and regular household tasks.
- Support good health habits: regular exercise, proper amount of rest, nutritious meals and snacks.
Encourage High but Realistic Expectations for Achievement
- Encourage your Child to work hard in school
- Regularly discuss education, life skills, careers and interests
- Regularly affirm your child’s self worth through positive messages.
Read, Write and Discuss
- Read to your child and listen to your child read
- Provide opportunities for writing (grocery lists, letters, stories to share with the family)
- Discuss with your child his or her school day, your day or current events.
Model the value of learning
- Set an example by reading at home and engaging in other learning activities.
- Play games together that require planning ahead and problem solving rather than pure luck
- Communicate openly
All of these ideas and more came from the following site.
