Word games help your child score a strong vocabulary Games that feature letters and words, such as Scrabble and Boggle, are great for having fun while practicing language skills. When you play with your child, don't worry too much about the rules. Using a dictionary is OK (it builds reading skills!). When you make a new word, discuss its meaning. You can also use the letter tiles to play other games: How many words can you each make from the letters in your names? http://niswc.com/15fLC320271 Los juegos de palabras enriquecen el vocabulario Los juegos de letras y palabras, como el Scrabble y Boggle, son estupendos para divertirse y practicar las habilidades lingüísticas al mismo tiempo. Cuando juegue con su hijo, no se preocupe demasiado por las reglas. Está bien que use un diccionario (pues ¡desarrolla las habilidades de lectura!). Cuando encuentren una palabra nueva, hablen de su significado. Pueden usar las fichas de letras para jugar a otros juegos: ¿cuántas palabras puede formar cada uno con las letras de su nombre? http://niswc.com/25fLC320271

Pack your child some lunchtime reading Do you want to squeeze a little more reading into your child's day? Pack a note in with her lunch. It doesn't have to be sentimental. You could give her a compliment or wish her luck on a test. Or write down a joke or a silly poem from a book. You could share some good news: "Surprise! Grandma's coming today!" Encourage your child to write notes back to you, too. http://niswc.com/15fJC320271

Reduce resistance with a little sympathy Successful students take responsibility for doing what's expected of them. Along the way, however, they often argue about it. One way to stop arguments is to acknowledge your child's feelings. If your child says, "I don't want to do my homework," you might respond with "Wouldn't it be nice if we never had to do things we don't want to?" Then get back to reality. "But we do. I have to wash the dishes, and you have to do your homework." http://niswc.com/15fIC320271

Your child has leadership potential Some children are born leaders. But all children have the ability to become leaders. You can help develop your child's leadership skills by pointing out leaders in the news. Talk about what makes people good leaders, such as being able to see other people's points of view and make people want to work together. Let your child practice by leading a family meeting or carrying out a family project. http://niswc.com/15fHC320271

Magazines offer appealing ways to read Are you looking for ways to motivate your child to read? Try using magazines. Look for children's magazines that match your child's interests. Then ask him to read an article to you. The plentiful pictures and captions give clues about the content that help him be successful. Another fun activity is to have your child cut out magazine pictures to create a rebus (a story that replaces some words with pictures). http://niswc.com/15fGC320271
