Prueben un delicioso experimento científico
Aquí tiene una manera de convertir el interés por la comida en una experiencia de aprendizaje: coloque un poco azúcar en diferentes partes de la lengua de su hijo. ¿Cuándo siente realmente su sabor? Repita lo mismo con jugo de limón, sal y chocolate amargo. ¿Puede su hijo identificar el lugar de la lengua donde se siente el sabor dulce, ácido, salado y amargo? Luego, dígale que chupe un cubito de hielo y repita el experimento. ¿Siente algún cambio?

Try a tasty science experiment
Here's a way to turn your child's interest in food into a learning experience: Put a little sugar on different parts of your elementary schooler's tongue. When does your child actually taste it? Repeat with lemon juice, salt and unsweetened chocolate. Can your child identify the places on the tongue where sweet, sour, salty and bitter flavors are tasted? Then, have your child suck on an ice cube and repeat the experiment. Does it make a difference?

Fomente la autodisciplina para lograr el éxito académico
Cuando los jóvenes piensan en la disciplina, con frecuencia se imaginan padres y maestros corrigiendo el mal comportamiento. Pero, en realidad, la disciplina más eficaz es la autodisciplina. Para promoverla, deje que su joven establezca su horario de estudio. Luego deje que asuma las consecuencias de sus acciones. Por ejemplo, si no hace un proyecto a tiempo, no lo ayude a hacerlo en el último minuto. La meta de usted es más grande que el éxito de su estudiante en un trabajo. Consiste en ayudar a su joven a convertirse en una persona más responsable e independiente.

Foster self-discipline for academic success
When teens think of discipline, they often think of parents and teachers correcting misbehavior. But the most effective kind of discipline is actually self-discipline. To encourage it, let your teen set up a study schedule. Then let your student experience the consequences of those decisions. If your teen puts off doing a project, don't help do it at the last minute. Your goal is bigger than success on one assignment. It is to help your teen become more responsible and self-reliant.

NCSO and NCSD are aware of the social media posts threatening violence at schools tomorrow, May 10, 2023. A thorough investigation was conducted and it was determined that the threatening post originated outside of Nevada and was directed at a school in Clark County. NCSO has determined there is no credible threat to any NCSD schools. Out of an abundance of caution, patrols will be increased so there is a more visible NCSO presence around our schools.

Offer your teen a sticky reading strategy
Most teens don't read a long assignment in one sitting. But when they pause for a break, they may forget what they've just learned. Before your teen takes a break from reading, suggest jotting down a few words on a sticky note about the reading so far and use it to mark the stopping place. When returning to the material, it will be easier for your teen to pick up the train of thought.

Ofrézcale a su joven una estrategia de lectura
La mayoría de los jóvenes no lee textos largos de un tirón, es decir, sin interrupciones. Pero cuando hacen una pausa para tomarse un descanso, es posible que olviden lo que acaban de aprender. Antes de que su joven se tome un descanso de la lectura, sugiérale que escriba algunas palabras sobre lo que leyó hasta el momento en una nota autoadhesiva y la use para marcar el lugar del texto donde dejó de leer. De este modo, cuando continúe la lectura, le será más fácil retomar su línea de pensamiento.

Fomente el pensamiento creativo con 'historias circulares'
Contar "historias circulares" es una manera muy divertida de despertar la creatividad de su hijo. Reúna a los miembros familiares e invente el comienzo de una historia: "Había una vez un caballero a quien el rey le encomendó una peligrosa misión". Después de una o dos oraciones, la próxima persona debe continuar la historia. Sigan los turnos en orden circular hasta que la historia termine con la palabra mágica, "Fin".

Encourage creative thinking with 'circular' stories
Telling "circular stories" is a fun way to get your child's creativity flowing. Gather family members and start a made-up story: "Once upon a time there was a knight who was sent by the king on a dangerous mission." After a sentence or two, it's the next person's turn to continue the tale. Keep going around the circle until the story is finished with the magic words "The End."

La constancia fomenta la autodisciplina
Los niños adquieren autodisciplina cuando tienen algunas reglas claras que deben respetar. Es posible que, cuando los adultos apliquen las reglas, los niños se quejen, pero en realidad suelen sentir alivio. Comuníquele claramente a su hijo cuáles son sus reglas y expectativas, y elógielo cuando las cumpla. Y a medida que demuestre responsabilidad, otórguele más libertad.
