=__How Parents Can Help__= --Ask about your student’s homework – what it is, when it’s due – and check to make sure they do it. Try to provide a place that is as free from distractions as possible for completing homework. --Show support by taking interest in the work and by providing encouragement. Ask you student to explain what it is they are learning in class. By doing so, this can develop their understanding and reasoning skills. --Talk to your student about school for at least a few minutes each day to let them know you’re interested and you think school is important. --Talk to your student about their specific interests related to school – subjects or teachers they like, clubs or extracurricular activities, books they are reading, projects they are working on, etc --Continue to celebrate school successes with appropriate rewards. Even though they may seem embarrassed, your student will appreciate your enthusiasm for their good work.
