Keeping track of school work, practices, and playdates can be overwhelming. Therefore, staying involved is the key to ensuring that your child will continue to grow emotionally, socially, and academically. The tips below will help you connect with your child and keep them engaged in their education.
1. BE IN THE KNOW — Stay informed of what is happening in your child’s classes. Attend parent conferences and events. Connect with their teacher and school.
2. EXPLORE OPPORTUNITIES — Try new things. Provide your child with the opportunity to extend their interests beyond the classroom: trips, internships, activities, books, games.
3. THIS JUST IN — Make current event topics a part of your daily conversations. Having discussions about national and world events provides a learning opportunity for parents and children.
4. BACK IN MY DAY — Discuss your own educational experiences with your child and talk about the skills that led to your success at school and beyond.
These ideas will keep you informed regarding your child’s education and provide opportunities for your family to have fun together.
