Parents,How can you help at home?

Read with your child every day. Have a quiet place for your child to do

his/her homework undisturbed each night. Check your child’s backpack nightly. Stay in contact with the teacher. Don’t wait

for progress reports or report cards. Take your child to the library. Practice math facts while driving or walking.
