Helping Ensure your Child’s Success

What Can I Do To Help My Child? Take the Smarter Balanced Practice Test Together Read Together Reading, Language Arts: Talk to your child Ask complex questions Have your child explain their thinking Have your child practice writing stories, their opinions, and information Mathematics: Ensure that your child can: Subtract, Add, Multiply, Divide (according to their grade level) Talk to your child about how you use Math in daily situations

Encourage a Growth Mindset Praise your child: for their effort in school (even when they fail). when they take on and persist through challenges. when they learn from criticism. Encourage your child: to see that intelligence is grown with hard work. to be more focused on the process of learning than the result of the final grade. When students believe that they can get smarter through their hard work, they will improve faster and experience greater success than students who do not believe this.
