Excessive screen time has been proven to interfere with cognitive ability and brain development. It has also been linked to increased levels of anxiety and negative affects on social skills and attention span. Screens should particularly be turned off when it gets closer to bedtime, as too much exposure to blue light from screens has been known to disrupt sleep patterns. We encourage that you give your child a very limited amount of screen time in general but especially during school nights. Help your child monitor their screen time and inspire them to engage in more time spent on hobbies, outside events, and creative activities. It’s very important that they’re able to function well at school and don’t always need to rely on screens to entertain them.

Clarify the purpose of your essay. Begin your report with an introduction that provides background information on the topic and outlines the main points that you will cover. Make sure you explain why you personally chose to write about your subject. Do your own research and credit the sources that you get the information from. Collect relevant data and statistics from credible sources to support your findings. Incorporate visuals such as charts or images to help illustrate key points. Review your final report for accuracy. Check for punctuation errors, grammar, and spelling.
Plan out the main events and structure of your story. Decide on how the beginning, middle, and end will work together. You should also consider any major plot twists or turning points. An outline can help keep your story organized and focused as you write. Describe the setting and atmosphere of your story in vivid detail to make the world come alive for your readers. Instead of simply telling them what’s happening, you can show it through scenes of actions and dialogue. Remember that writing is a process and can take time. Keep experimenting with new ideas.

Memory: Create pairs of cards with addition problems and their solutions. Place the cards face down and take turns flipping over two cards at a time to find matches. If a player correctly matches an addition problem with its solution, they keep the pair. The player with the most matches at the end is the winner.
Bowling: Set up a bowling game using plastic bottles or cups as pins and a soft ball as the bowling ball. Write different numbers on the pins. Take turns rolling the ball to knock down the pins. Add up the numbers on the pins to keep track of your score.
Dice: Use dice to practice addition. Roll two dice and have your child count the total number of dots on both dice. Turn this into a game where you create a board with spaces. The number that you role is how many spaces you move your piece. Whoever makes it to the end wins.
Allow your child to choose books that interest him. If he has trouble reading alone, set aside time each day to read along together and always have a dictionary on hand. Make sure that the books are at your child’s reading level and provide access to many different subjects. Setting up a good reading environment will help your child want to focus more on reading and maybe even want to write stories of his own.
