Keep your child's brain active over break
Winter break is a time for fun. But that doesn't mean your child can't also keep her mind sharp and continue learning. Encourage her to read for pleasure. You can help her find books by authors she likes or have her reread old favorites. If your child receives holiday gifts, have her write thank-you notes. Spend some time playing board games as a family that require math or higher-level thinking skills.

Sugiera temas divertidos para que su hijo represente en un gráfico
Los gráficos hacen que la información se pueda comprender de un vistazo, y constituyen una importante habilidad matemática para los estudiantes de primaria. Para ayudar a su hijo a fortalecer esta habilidad, anímelo a hacer gráficos durante las vacaciones de invierno. Sugiérale temas que podría representar en un gráfico, como los colores de los automóviles que hay en el vecindario, el número de camisas que tiene cada miembro familiar, o las temperaturas máximas y mínimas de cada día.

Suggest fun things for your child to graph
Graphing makes information understandable at a glance, and it is an important math skill for elementary schoolers. To reinforce your child's graphing skills, encourage him to make some graphs over winter break. Suggest topics he might enjoy graphing, such as colors of cars in your neighborhood, the number of T-shirts owned by each member of your family, or the high and low temperature each day.

Show your child in many ways that education matters
When your child knows that school is important to you, it will become important to her. To show her, talk with your child every day about school. Tell her why you value education. Monitor her homework, and post her improved and successful work for all to see. Be sure your child has the school supplies she needs. And let your child know that you and her teachers are working together to help her succeed in school.

Muéstrele a su hijo de diversas maneras que la educación es importante
Si su hijo sabe que la escuela es importante para usted, también se convertirá en algo importante para él. Para mostrarle esto, hable de la escuela todos los días. Dígale por qué valora la educación. Supervise la tarea, y exhiba los trabajos que su hijo haya mejorado y en los que se haya destacado para que todos puedan verlos. Asegúrese de que tenga los materiales escolares que necesita. Y dígale que usted y sus maestros trabajan juntos para ayudarlo a tener éxito en la escuela.

Make stress relief a part of your family's routine
Stress is all too common in busy families. And when your child is stressed, it can affect his success in school. To reduce stress at home, create a peaceful after-school-and-work routine that lets your family reconnect. You might share a healthy snack while you talk together about the day. After 15 minutes or so, you'll all be more refreshed and ready to take on evening tasks such as cooking dinner or doing homework.

Haga que aliviar el estrés sea parte de su rutina familiar
El estrés es parte de la vida cotidiana de las familias ocupadas. Y si su hijo está estresado, su éxito en la escuela podría verse perjudicado. Para aliviar el estrés en su hogar, establezca una rutina tranquila para después de la escuela y el trabajo que permita que su familia se reconecte. Podrían compartir un bocadillo saludable mientras comentan su día. Después de unos 15 minutos, todos estarán renovados y listos para ocuparse de las tareas de la noche, como preparar la cena y hacer la tarea.

Stay in touch with your child's teachers all year long
To be an active partner in your child's education, communicate regularly with his teachers. Parent-teacher conferences are a start, but it's also important to stay in touch throughout the year. Ask the teachers for advice on how to help your child learn. Respond to report cards. Provide information about situations affecting your child. You could even say thanks when your child learns a new skill.

Help your child think about the sources of online information
Anyone can put up a website, and the digital world is filled with conflicting information. That's why it's important for students to learn to evaluate the material they read online. Does the source have a product to sell or a political agenda? Your child should take that into account. If experts seem to disagree, she should find out why. For example, is one source out of date, since newer research has been done?

Manténgase en contacto con los maestros todo el año
Para participar activamente en la educación de su hijo, comuníquese con los maestros regularmente. Las reuniones de padres son un buen comienzo, pero también es importante mantenerse en contacto durante el trascurso del año. Pregúnteles a los maestros cómo usted puede ayudar a su hijo a aprender. Responda a las boletas de calificaciones. Infórmeles sobre las situaciones que están afectando a su hijo. Incluso podría decirles gracias cuando su hijo aprende una habilidad nueva.
