We know it’s not easy to balance work, life and the educational needs of your kids. The time you spend together is precious, so we have developed resources for you that are designed to maximize your time with them. While sending your child to school is important…
You, the parent, are the primary educator
Trust us, this is not going to be too much work. The first step is to simply be a bit more aware of what your student’s teacher is doing.
The Common Core Standards, were adopted by 41 states in 2014 as a way to address the relative drop in academic performance of American students compared to the world. They are dense and full of educational jargon, and can be a challenge to decipher for even career teachers.
Our Learning Targets on each grade level page interpret these standards to make them easier for you and your student to practice. Click on our shop to find flash card decks containing every learning target in math, reading and writing for your student’s grade level.
The 2nd step is to learn our routines, which provide you a way to practice every standard with a few notebooks and a pencil. Being consistent on these will make both you and your student comfortable in this time.
You know your child better than anyone else, and they will share with you their confusions much more deeply than they would to any staff in a school. Your words of encouragement and tips on how you learned something might will bring you closer together and build their confidence in the class.
