Think about the skills for your child to work on based on your own observations and teacher feedback. Use the Readiness Check to know how your child is doing with grade-level math and reading skills and get connected to fun, easy-to-use resources to help them practice those skills every day.
Replay What Matters Most
What does your child want to learn about? What makes them light up with confidence and joy? Ask your child how they are feeling–about themselves and their friendships. Lean into what keeps them motivated and look for resources in your community and online.
