HOW TO HELP AT HOME:  

Give your child time to read, every night. Make sure to ask them questions about what they are reading. What is the main character thinking?  Rather than monitoring time (suggest 20 minutes), trying having your child read 1-2 chapters a day.

PRACTICE MATH FACTS! Practice is VERY important! Multiplication! Use the flashcards you were given at Winter Break. Practice with them 10 minutes every night.


TYPING:  It is VERY important that you practice typing at home. ALL State Tests (starting in 3rd grade) will have typing. They can write a sentence each day. Focus on punctuation; spell check and punctuation help will be removed from tests. In other words; no red, green or blue lines underneath words.
