Make room for manners in your lesson plan

With all there is to teach your child right now, manners may not be high on your list. But even in an online classroom, one student's bad manners can make learning harder for everyone. To encourage respectful behavior, talk with your child about what it means to treat others the way he would have them treat him. Model how to express feelings calmly instead of lashing out with inappropriate words or actions.

A simple process encourages cooperation

Experts suggest these steps for motivating children to do what they're asked. First, tell your child exactly what you want her to do. Next, link the behavior you want with something your child wants (that you're willing to deliver). "When your math is done, we can play a game." Then keep your promise when your child does what you've asked (and not before!). Finally, comment positively when your child cooperates.

Promote reading with an advertising lesson

To put a positive spin on screen time, pay attention to the ads when you next watch a TV program with your child. Talk together about the words advertisers use to get viewers to buy things. Then, challenge your child to make a commercial for one of his favorite books. What points would he make? How will he convince people to stay tuned? Have him practice his ad so he can "sell" his book to the entire family.

Bird watching is science in action

To help your child connect with science, encourage her to keep a record of the birds she sees. She can draw them, write descriptions or take pictures. While she's at it, discuss ways humans and birds are similar. You might ask, "Do you think baby birds are afraid when they learn to fly? Are there things you might be afraid to do but know you need to learn?" Help her go online to identify and learn more about birds in your area.

Sharpen skills with a creative writing game

Writers are careful observers. Here's a fun way to help your children build observation and writing skills. Bring some pencils and paper on a walk. Set a time limit, then challenge your kids to write down words for things they see around them (building, tree, etc.). They can also include descriptive words like tall or gray. When the time is up, see who can turn their word collection into the most creative sentence.

Send your child on a number hunt

To help your young child recognize numbers and some of the ways people use them, send him on a number hunt. Choose a number, such as 12. Write it on a piece of paper. Now challenge your child to find that number somewhere in your home. He might find it on the clock or on a can in your cupboard. Talk about its purpose. Then it's your child's turn to write down a number and send you on a number hunt.

Stick with routines to limit summer learning loss

After this year's disruptions, keeping up school success routines throughout the summer is especially important. Reading, for example, is a skill that children must practice continually or it will get rusty. Set aside 30 minutes each day for quiet reading with your child. Be sure your family members' daily routines also include physical activity and household responsibilities.
