Ayude a su joven a hacer preguntas analíticas:
Con frecuencia, los educadores hablan del razonamiento analítico. Dicho simplemente, cada vez que los estudiantes analizan algo y se hacen preguntas están razonando. Para ayudar a su joven a pensar críticamente sobre algo, dígale que se pregunte: ¿Tiene sentido? ¿Está respaldado por hechos? Si se trata de una opinión, ¿está de acuerdo? Ínstelo a tener una mente abierta y no aceptar ni rechazar una idea nueva sin analizarla.

¡No espere! Comience los preparativos para la universidad ahora:
Pensar en la universidad no es solo para los estudiantes del último año de secundaria. Sin importar la edad de su joven, hay maneras importantes de prepararse. Los estudiantes de intermedia deberían concentrarse en adquirir habilidades de estudio. Los estudiantes del noveno grado deberían comenzar a elaborar un plan de cuatro años con las clases que cursarán para cumplir con los requisitos de admisión a la universidad. Los estudiantes del décimo grado deberían cursar clases rigurosas y prepararse para rendir el SAT o ACT. Los estudiantes del undécimo grado deberían hacer todo lo anterior y también investigar (y de ser posible, visitar) las universidades que más les gustan.

Cómo evitar la disminución en la lectura típica de cuarto grado:
Es común que los niños sufran una disminución en la lectura alrededor de cuarto grado. Los libros que comienzan a leer son más difíciles, y la concentración de los estudiantes se ve reducida. Para cerciorarse de que su hijo continúe leyendo, no deje de leer con él. Su participación le muestra que la lectura es importante. Busque material de lectura relacionado con los intereses de su hijo. Limite el tiempo que pasa frente a la pantalla, y deje que se aburra algunas veces. Pues cuando esto sucede, podría abrir un libro y leer.

Don't wait! Start college preparations now:
Thinking about college is not just for high school seniors. No matter your student's age, there are important ways she can prepare. Middle schoolers should work on developing study skills. Ninth graders should be making a four-year plan of courses to fulfill college admission requirements. Tenth graders should be taking rigorous courses and preparing to take the SAT or ACT. Eleventh graders should do all of the above and should be researching (and visiting, if possible) the colleges they like most.

What to do when the 'fourth-grade reading slump' strikes:
It's common for kids to hit a reading slump around fourth grade. The books get harder and the students' concentration decreases. To ensure that your child keeps reading, continue to read with him. Your involvement shows him that reading is important. Look for reading materials that match your child's interests. Limit his screen time, and let your child be bored sometimes. He just might pick up a book.

Don't let absenteeism threaten your child's education: It seems obvious to say that kids need to be in school to learn. But studies continually show how important attendance really is. Absenteeism in kindergarten can influence whether a child gets held back in third grade. Frequent absences later on increase the chances a student will drop out of school altogether. Absenteeism is reversible, so make sure your child arrives at school on time, every day.

Encourage a reluctant reader to try something short:
Too many students never learn to see reading as something they can do for fun. To encourage your teen to read for pleasure, suggest he try reading a collection of short stories or poems. If he doesn't like one poem or story, he can move on to another. If he finds one he likes, suggest that he read other works by the same author. Your teen may also enjoy reading a biography of a writer whose works he likes.

Anime a su lector reacio a leer algo corto:
Muchos estudiantes nunca aprenden a ver la lectura como una actividad divertida. Para animar a su joven a leer por placer, sugiérale que lea una colección de cuentos o poemas. De este modo, si uno de ellos no le agrada, puede pasar al próximo. Si hay un autor que le gusta, sugiérale que lea otras obras que haya publicado. También podría disfrutar de leer la biografía de su escritor favorito.
