Ways to Help at Home:
READING: 1. Listen to your child read. Give praise and encouragement whenever possible. 2. Avoid correcting every mistake, it does more harm than good. When they make a mistake or struggle with a word for more than 25 seconds, tell them the word. You could write it down for practice later if it's a word you think most 3rd graders should know. 3. Make sure the book is not too hard. A book is too hard if the child struggles with more than 1 word out of 10. If it's painful to listen because the reading is slow and word-by-word, the book is too hard. Please see me for tips on finding "just right" books. 4. Ask your child about their reading: have them summarize what they've read so far, What is the main idea? What do they think the author wanted readers to get from the book/story? Would they recommend the book to a friend? Why or why not? Your interest in their reading tells them that reading is important!
Research shows that 3rd grade is the make-it or break-it year . If your child does not read at grade-level by the end of this year, the likelihood of becoming a high school dropout is greatly increased.
Any and all reading is beneficial - comic books, cereal boxes, labels at the grocery store, bulletin boards, etc. 30 minutes per day - EVERY day (yes, weekends, too) is recommended, but it can be split up - 15 minutes after school and 10 minutes before bed and 5 minutes before school, for example.
Re-reading is encouraged - actually, it is required by the new CCSS. Re-reading helps kids with comprehension, fluency, vocabulary development, spelling and it improves their ability to read future text. The new CCSS require "close reading" of text for deeper understanding, so , let your child read and reread and reread those books!
MATH Students MUST know the addition and subtraction fact families (eg 3 + 2 = 5, 2 + 3 = 5, 5 - 3 = 2, 5 - 2 = 3), and multiplication and division fact families (eg 5 X 3 = 15, 3 X 5 = 15, 15/3 = 5, and 15/5 = 3) from 0 + 0 and 0 X 0 through 10 + 10 and 10 X 10. They should practice at home every day until they know them all by heart. You can get flash cards at the Dollar Tree or you can make them at home. Knowledge of the basic facts provides the foundation for all future math learning. Please help your child build a solid foundation!
