No se deshaga de los anuncios del supermercado
Los folletos del supermercado son estupendos para ayudar a su hijo a practicar matemáticas. Revísenlos juntos y dígale que recorte imágenes de alimentos con su precio. Luego pídale que formule problemas de matemáticas con esas imágenes y que los resuelva. "Javier compró una libra de plátanos por 50 centavos. ¿Cuánto cuestan dos libras de plátanos?"

Don't throw away those grocery store ads
Grocery store ads are great for helping your child practice math skills. Look through the ads together and have your child cut out pictures of foods along with their prices. Now challenge your elementary schooler to create and solve word problems using the pictures. "Joey bought one pound of bananas for 50 cents. How much would two pounds of bananas cost?"

Fomente la lectura para inspirar nuevas maneras de escribir
Una de las maneras más efectivas de que los estudiantes aprendan a escribir mejor es leer todo tipo de material. Cuando su joven termine de leer algo, sugiérale que piense en los recursos que usó el autor y que él podría probar cuando escriba. Rételo a utilizar esas ideas para escribir algo nuevo. Por ejemplo, si su joven suele escribir textos de no ficción para sus trabajos, sugiérale que escriba algo de ficción o poesía.

Controle la vista antes del inicio de clases
Si su hijo no ve del todo bien, el aprendizaje se verá perjudicado. Los oftalmólogos, médicos especializados en la vista, recomiendan que se examine a los niños que se pierden con frecuencia en el texto cuando leen, evitan tareas que requieren esfuerzo visual a corta distancia, o sujetan el material de lectura más cerca de lo normal. También debería examinarse a los niños que se quejan de dolor de cabeza, inclinan la cabeza hacia un lado mientras leen para usar un solo ojo, o invierten las letras y palabras cuando leen y escriben.

Encourage reading to inspire new ways to write
One of the most effective ways students can learn to become better writers is to read widely. After your teen reads something, suggest thinking about things the writer did that your teen could try when writing. Challenge your student to use those ideas to write something new. If your teen usually writes non-fiction for assignments, for example, suggest trying fiction or poetry.

Check for vision problems before school resumes
If your child's eyes aren't functioning properly, learning may suffer. Eye doctors encourage examinations for children who often lose their place while reading, avoid up-close work, or hold reading materials closer than normal. An exam is also warranted if your child complains of headaches, head-tilts while reading to use one eye only, or reverses letters and words when reading and writing.

Exploren las maravillas de la naturaleza con una microcaminata
Desarrolle las habilidades de observación de su hijo con una microcaminata. Dígale que extienda una cuerda de entre tres y cinco pies de largo en el suelo al aire libre. Dele una lupa, y dígale “Imagina que eres del tamaño de una hormiga”. Luego dígale que siga el sendero que marca la cuerda y observe los detalles diminutos. Hágale preguntas como: ¿En qué tipo de mundo estás viajando? ¿Quiénes son tus vecinos más cercanos? ¿Son amigables?

Explore natural wonders on a micro-hike
Build your child's observation skills by taking a micro-hike together. Have your child lay a three- to five-foot piece of string on the ground outdoors. Provide a magnifying glass, and say, "Imagine you are the size of an ant." Then have your child follow the string trail and observe tiny details. Ask questions like: What kind of world are you traveling through? Who are your nearest neighbors? Are they friendly?

Thank you, VEA!
Construya un puente para eliminar la brecha de comunicación
Con frecuencia, los jóvenes se quedan mudos cuando uno desea que hablen. Para fomentar la comunicación con su joven, busque maneras de construir puentes entre sus vidas. Pruebe las siguientes sugerencias: Tomen un helado mientras comparan sus experiencias en la escuela intermedia o secundaria. Siéntense con un bol de palomitas de maíz y miren algunos programas de TV que usted miraba cuando era joven. O miren las fotografías de cuando usted iba a la secundaria y ríanse juntos.

Bridge the communication gap
Teens often clam up when you wish they would talk. To open up communication with your teen, look for ways to build bridges between your lives. Try these suggestions: Over ice cream, compare your middle or high school experiences. Settle in together to eat popcorn and watch some TV shows you watched as a teen. Or share a laugh looking over your old high school photos.

A huge THANK-YOU to everyone who donated and volunteered for VEA's annual "Fill the Bucket Truck" school supply drive on Saturday.
Help your child understand more about fairness
Is "No fair!" your child's favorite phrase? Use it to talk about what fairness involves. For example, fair doesn't always mean equal. An older child may have more freedom. A younger one might have fewer responsibilities. Sometimes fairness involves compromise, so look for times when you can meet your child halfway. Ask, "What do you think would make it fair?" and use any of your child's ideas that are realistic.
