Fun Ways To Practice Addition
Fun ways to practice adding with your child:
1. Make an adding game using cards or pieces of paper with numbers written on them. Have your child pick two cards or pieces of paper and add the numbers together.
2. Create a number line on the floor with tape. Help your child move along the line to add the numbers together.
3. Use everyday objects like blocks, toys or even food for your child to add together.
4. Show your child different addition problems and have him/her draw pictures to represent the problems.
5. Games like Monopoly and Yahtzee can be used to teach basic addition skills. Have your child practice adding up their money for purchases or the score of their roll.
6. Create a game board with different squares and when the child lands on a square have them solve an addition problem.

Benefits of Professional Tutoring
Tutoring can have a direct effect on a student’s academic performance. Through one-on-one instruction, tutors can help students understand the material more fully and identify areas of weakness. Tutors can help students develop better study habits, such as taking notes, outlining material, and using study guides.
Tutors can provide support and motivation to help students stay on track with their studies while also building a student’s self-confidence.
Tutors can provide a positive environment for learning, which can help students feel more comfortable asking questions and trying new things. Tutors can help students build strong critical thinking skills and feel more confident in their ability to tackle challenging material.
Finally, tutoring can help students develop better time management skills and help them learn how to prioritize tasks. Tutors can help students plan out their studies more efficiently and identify areas where they can improve their study habits.

“I’ve been speeding ahead on my phonics, and I want to be going fast on my math. I’ve passed three phonics books now and one math book. I’ve been writing and reading with Ms. Stephanie (CLC Tutor). I’ve been working on the flip charts with Ms. Stephanie. I feel like I’m getting better every day.” -R. (2nd grade student)
