Use reading to turn frowns upside down:
April is National Humor Month! Give your child a chuckle or two by going online to find funny riddles, comics, stories and poems for children. Take turns reading them out loud to each other. Then, together, try to come up with your own silly poetry and stories. See how corny you can be!

The state of Texas is strong; our people, resilient.
As we have seen in years past, when tested by fire, flood, or hurricane, Texans respond with resilience and calm resolve. And just as we overcame those challenges, we will overcome this one. When neighbors help neighbors, our resilience is redoubled.
I have no doubt that Texans will continue to work together in that spirit over the coming days and weeks.
And we are here to help. --Governor Greg Abbott

Help your child feel capable of doing hard things:
Some kids are willing to try hard, even if the work is tough. Others give up before they get started. What's the difference? It's the kids who believe in their ability to succeed who stick with it. Tell your child that she has what it takes to do a good job. Then remind her that ability without effort won't get the job done. Encourage her to work hard to reach goals that she has the power to achieve.

A note-taking system helps teens get more from reading:
If your teen's mind wanders when she reads, try this: Divide a sheet of paper into four quarters. In the first, put an exclamation point. This stands for "I didn't know that!" The second gets a question mark for questions your teen has while reading. The third gets a plus and a minus sign, for "I agree/don't agree." The fourth gets a cloud, for "I wonder." As she reads, your teen should make notes in the boxes.
