Create Learning Opportunities through Family Engagement
In order to keep students on an educational path, many parents are instituting educational schedules and specific times allotted to practicing subject areas. Although the intentions and efforts from daily educational agendas are well meaning, some students may struggle to find value and long term application from online platforms and digital homework packets. Parents can help stave off educational apathy, create daily dialogue with their children, and have some fun by thinking outside the box.
Family Game Night - Games by definition are something we play, offering the opportunity to think, react, adapt, master, compete, and laugh all the way through. Research also suggests that board games can be helpful in building social skills and self-esteem, as well as teach kids about rules, competition, fair play, and values. Games are also just plain fun! Click below to read the entire list of games and how to create a fun, educational lesson.

Family Movie Night - Watch films recommended by TeachWithMovies as a family, and talk briefly about the events the films portray. Your family’s set of shared experiences will increase and screen time will change from a passive void to a learning experience.
