SIX WAYS TO GET YOUR CHILD
OFF TO A GOOD START!
You can help your
child get off to a good start this school year. Here are some
ideas to get you started.
1. Get to know
your child’s teachers. As a parent, you know your child
best. Share what you know with the teachers. Does your child
have a special interest? A favorite book? Are there subjects in
which your child needs special help? You don’t have to
wait until parent conferences.
2. Talk with your
child’s teachers about problems, too. What goes on at home
affects how a child does in school. Separation, family illness,
a new baby or even a move can all affect a child’s school
work. You don’t have to tell the teachers all your
personal business, but make sure your child’s teacher
knows important facts.
3. Learn what is
expected of your child. Will there be homework? How
much?
4. Limit TV.
Studies show that the kids who do best in school watch the
least television. But remember---when you first turn off the
set, you'll have to help your child find other things to do.
Read a book or magazine. Take a walk. Visit the library, or try
playing a game.
5. Make sure your
child gets enough sleep. Tired children can’t do their
best work. So set a bedtime---and stick to it.
6. Eat breakfast!
See that your child has a good breakfast before coming to
school. It’s difficult for a child to concentrate on
school work when all they can think about is
LUNCH.
This tips can get
your child off to a great start for the school
year.
