Ways To Support Your Child at Home and at School

• Praise your child daily for specific accomplishments

• Take your child to the library, to community activities, and to museums

• Set limits on TV-watching.  Be selective about what your child views.
  
  
• Label the belongings your child takes to school
  
  
• Ask to see your child’s schoolwork
  
  
• Establish rules, routines and chores at home
  
  
• Create a special area for library books and homework. 
  Teach your child to check this area as he or she leaves for school
  
  
• Provide a quiet, well-lighted place where your child can study
  
  
• Keep your child healthy by taking him or her for regular checkups,
  keeping immunizations current, providing a balanced diet, and
  making sure he or she gets regular exercise
  
  
• Read to your child and encourage him or her to read to you.
  Be a reading role model by letting your child see you read
• Notify your child’s teacher of any medical concerns.
  
  
• Keep your child at home if he or she has a fever, a rash,
  a sore throat, an earache, an active cold, or whenever you feel
  that things are not right with your child.
