Great Ways to Help Your First Grader This Month......

 

1.  Take a family vote to find out favorite ice cream flavors.  Have your child tally the results to find a winning flavor.

 

2.  Visit the public library and check out a book of poetry for children.  Ask them to help you find rhyme and spelling patterns in the poems.

 

3.  Give your child a new responsibility in the house this month.  Allow them to help you with the household jobs and feel proud about having contributed.

 

Look closely at your child's "Math Boxes" when they come home.  These are pages from their math journal that have four tasks on them.  If your child has one or more incorrect, walk them through making corrections and help to review the concepts.

 

 

Happy October Birthday!
