Hello,

this is what I can tell based on the research I have did.

Simple things you can do to help your child learn at home:

• Let your child know you believe in him or her

  Tell your child often that you believe in him or her. Let your child hear starting at a very young age that you believe in his or her ability to do well.

• Talk, sing, and read with your child

  Talk, sing, and read together, as often as you can!

• Involve your extended family

  Ask all the people who care about your child aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins, godparents, baby sitters, neighbors, and friends to encourage your child to do well in school.

• Limit your child’s TV watching

  Try to control how much TV your child watches. This includes when your child is with you, with a baby sitter, or home alone. Children need to hear and talk to adults in order to build their language skills.

• Have a positive attitude toward school and learning

  Take an interest in how your child is doing at school so he or she will believe that learning is important.

• Make sure your child does homework

  Look over your child’s homework each night. Ask your child to explain what he or she is learning. Make sure that assignments are completed. If possible, find a quiet place for your child to study, and set aside time each evening for homework.
