SUPPORT YOUR CHILD TO BECOME AN INDEPENDENT LEARNER

Your child should attempt to complete each assignment on his/her own. If your child needs help with the assignment, please remind your child of the options below that are available to them for getting help. You can also explore these options with your child. There are a number of ways to find a solution, such as:
She/he can read the question a second, third or fourth time.
Review the concepts and skills: Access the resources posted on the different platforms and tools we use to review the concepts and skills.
View an online video recommended by the teacher related to the topic.
Explain what the question or task is asking to help clarify for your child what is required.
Send a video or voice note to the teacher.
Email the teacher with any questions about the assignment or for additional information.
Younger students ages 4 to 6 can now try to navigate tools independently. As you coach them, please explain to the child what you are doing as you navigate so that the child can follow and do it for him/herself the next time ( I do--we do--you do).
It is okay to submit some incorrect work if the child does not grasp the concepts. It is very useful because the teacher can then use 1 to 1 sessions or small group sessions to explain concepts again.
As much as possible children should complete activities on their own. Teachers need to determine the student’s learning process and adjust lesson planning along the way.

According to Tough, the six key character traits of successful students are:
learned optimism,
self-control/willpower,
motivation,
conscientiousness,
