Sharpen spelling with a grocery list:
To help your child sharpen her spelling skills, ask her to write your grocery list. Name the items you need, and challenge her to sound the words out on her own before you help with spelling them. When you bring the groceries home, can she match the words on the list with the words on the items on the shelf? She'll learn to spell, and she'll feel competent every time you ask her to make a list you can take to the store.

Teachers and parents, new resources have been added to the Falcons Learn@Home page. The RISD team is here to partner with parents! Please reach out to your child's teacher with any questions or concerns.
These devices add interest to literature:
Understanding some of the devices writers use can help your teen enjoy the literature she reads. Illustrative language, for example, enriches descriptions. Metaphor (comparing two unlike things by saying one is the other: "a blanket of snow") and simile (saying one thing is "like" another) are two types of illustrative language. Suggest your teen research other literary devices, and keep them in mind when she reads.

When it comes to discipline, replace lectures with listening: You've repeated yourself until you're blue in the face, but your teen keeps doing things you've asked him not to. That's probably because lecturing makes him angry and defensive. What works? Working on a problem together. To encourage cooperation, say, "I'd really like to hear what's going on with you so we can talk about it." Teens are more likely to react positively if they feel parents are listening to them. http://niswc.com/36dTC320271
