Catching words makes reading fun! Kids who enjoy reading do more of it. Make reading fun for your young reader with a "fishing" game: Get some index cards. Write one vocabulary word on each, then attach a paper clip to each card. These are the fish. To make a rod, tie a magnet to one end of a piece of string, and tie the other end to a small stick. Now, let your child "fish" for words. Award one point for every word your child can read (or define, if your student is older). https://tpitip.com/?14cJ8433

Deje en claro que faltar a la escuela no es una opción La asistencia es importante para el éxito escolar, y las ausencias afectan a todos los estudiantes. Participar en clase promueve el aprendizaje. Para mostrarle a su joven que la asistencia escolar es una prioridad: Espere que su estudiante asista a todas las clases, todos los días (excepto en caso de enfermedad o emergencia). Evite programar citas para su joven durante el horario escolar. Y si falta a clases sin permiso, responda con seriedad. Deje claro que su joven ha roto una regla importante tanto en la escuela como en casa. https://tpitip.com/?44cH8433

Be clear that missing school is not an option Attendance matters for school success, and absences affect all students. Participating in class promotes learning. To show your teen that school attendance is a priority: Expect your student to attend every class, every day (except in cases of illness or emergency). Avoid making appointments for your teen during school hours. And if your teen skips classes, take it seriously. Make it clear that your teen has broken an important rule at school and at home. https://tpitip.com/?34cH8433

En las comidas familiares, sirva una buena conversación Puede que no sea nada fácil reunir a toda su familia para comer juntos, pero los estudios revelan que vale la pena el esfuerzo. Las conversaciones que se dan durante las comidas pueden enriquecer el vocabulario y el rendimiento académico de su hijo, y además estrechar el vínculo entre ustedes. Traten de comer en familia por lo menos una comida al día. Apaguen los dispositivos que son fuente de distracción, y hablen del día de cada uno. Háblele directamente a su hijo y fomente su participación en la conversación. https://tpitip.com/?24cB8433

Serve up conversation at family meals It may not be easy to get your family together for a meal, but research shows it's worth the effort. Mealtime conversation can improve your child's vocabulary and academic performance, and strengthen bonds with you. Strive to eat at least one meal as a family each day. Turn off distracting devices and talk about everyone's day. Address your child directly and encourage participation in the conversation. https://tpitip.com/?14cB8433

Lleve un registro para ver adónde se va su tiempo El tiempo es un recurso valioso. ¿Está su familia aprovechándolo al máximo? Para averiguarlo, dígales a los miembros familiares que lleven un registro del tiempo durante una semana. Cada media hora, todos deberían registran cómo pasaron su tiempo. Esto les dará una imagen clara de adónde se va el tiempo de cada uno. Cuando lo sepan, podrán tomar decisiones según lo que sea mejor para usted, su joven y su familia. https://tpitip.com/?44cA8433

Use a log to see where all your time goes Time is a precious resource. Is your family making the most of it? To find out, set aside one week to have family members keep a time log. Every half hour, everyone should record how they spent their time. The time log will give you a clear picture of where each person's time is going. When you know that, you can make choices that are best for you, your teen and your family. https://tpitip.com/?34cA8433

Use expectativas para mostrarle el camino a su joven Establecer expectativas es como darle un mapa de ruta a su joven. Sin ellas, no hay garantía de que llegará al destino final. Sin ellas, no podrá encontrar su camino. Para asegurarse de que el mapa sea claro, ayude a su joven a trazarse metas educativas y determinar cómo alcanzarlas. Dígale a su joven que cree rutinas para el trabajo escolar, y haga hincapié en la relación entre el esfuerzo y los resultados. Hablar regularmente sobre la escuela también le muestra a su joven que usted espera que la tome con seriedad. https://tpitip.com/?44ba8433
