At Home Connections

Dear DeBakey Parents,

Geometry is a foundational math course that plays a crucial role in your child’s future success in high school and beyond. While it can be challenging at times, your support at home makes a big difference!

Here are a few simple ways you can help your child succeed in Geometry:

✅ Review their notes daily

✅ Complete all assignments with care and effort

✅ Come to class prepared and ready to learn

✅ Encourage a Positive Attitude: Let your child know it’s okay to struggle—and that learning from mistakes is part of the process. A growth mindset leads to stronger problem-solving skills.

✅ Create a Consistent Study Routine: Set aside a regular time and quiet space for homework and review. Even 15–20 minutes a day can reinforce learning and reduce stress.

✅ Ask Questions and Stay Involved: You don’t have to be a math expert! Ask your child to explain what they learned in class—it helps them process concepts and builds confidence.

✅ Use the Resources Available: Encourage your child to use the tutorial sessions, online videos, and teacher office hours when they need help. We’re here to support them every step of the way.

With consistent study habits and strong home support, students are more likely to stay confident, engaged, and on track for success. Thank you for being an essential part of their learning journey!
