Help Your Child Learn at Home

English Language Arts & Literacy

• Make reading for fun a part of your child’s daily routine. Set aside quiet time, with no phones, computers, or other distractions when your child can read for pleasure.

• Encourage your child to find a picture from a newspaper or magazine, cut it out, paste it on paper, and write a story about it.

• Start a family vocabulary box or jar. Have everyone write down new words they discover, add them to the box, and use the words in conversation.
