6. Academics: how you can help!
Comprehension: Ensure your child is reading every night, and ask them questions to ensure they are understanding what they are reading
Math Facts: by now, they are expected to have memorized their multiplication tables. This is essential for when we begin division.
Journaling: we write every single day at school. They need to continue the habit on the weekend and during holidays.
Reading: kids learn from modeling. Let them see you reading, and make time to read together.

7. Learning Skills
Aside from academics, your child is also being evaluated in the following areas:
Responsibility
