How much should my child be reading every night?

Reading at this time in a child's development is so important!  Third 
graders need to read about 30 minutes every afternoon or evening.  They 
can read independantly, with a parent, read aloud to another person or 
their favorite stuffed animal.

What can my child do to become better at math?

I'm so glad you asked that question!  We are lucky to have a FANTASTIC 
resource given to us by a school district parent who noticed kids needed 
more help with math facts.  Every Artondale Student has a password to get 
into this math facts website:  http://xtramath.org/ Hint:  Use the same 
password we use at school.
This program will keep track of every student's progress so they will be 
continually challenged at the next computation level.  Ten minutes a day is 
all you need!
