POWER TIPS
Academics @ Home
The most powerful ways to develop children’s literacy skills are also the simplest: talk to them, listen to them, read to them and write with them. When caring adults talk to kids about the world — from how recipes work to the rules of baseball — they are planting seeds of knowledge that will help kids grow into curious thinkers, readers and writers.
Math shapes the world around us in fascinating ways. It’s more than just counting or adding or memorizing math facts. When parents help kids explore everyday math — at home, at the store, in the park and at play — we help our children begin to think like creative, curious mathematicians.
