Here are some tips to help make sure your child is successful in 1st grade:

• Read with your child for 20 minutes EVERY DAY! Research shows that reading just 20 minutes a day can have a huge impact on a child academically, socially, and emotionally. Check out this article about reading from the Washington Post.

• Help your child practice counting to 120 (starting at any given number), and then addition and subtraction facts as they are learning them.

• Have your child practice reading and writing high frequency words (heart words) to mastery.
