Point out the positive results of effort
When it comes to achieving in school, intelligence propels students only so far. It takes hard work to get the rest of the way. Let your child know you place a high value on effort. Then, reinforce your message by showing your student how effort pays off. When your elementary schooler gets a high grade on a test, for example, say, "I know how hard you studied, and this is the result. I'm proud of you."

Ms. Edwards and her drama class from WHHS came to Moody today to present The Little Red Hen to our kindergarten through second grade grade students. They enjoyed the show!
Help your child learn to work as part of a team
Leadership is a positive trait, but students also need to know how to work with others without taking over. To encourage fairness, take turns making some family decisions, such as what toppings to put on a pizza. Discuss the need to consider everyone's tastes. Promote fairness by setting rules such as "If one person chooses the game, the other gets the first turn." Offer praise when your child shows teamwork.

Get set for standardized tests
Standardized tests are a part of most students' school careers. Ask the teacher when your child will be taking a standardized test. Then, help your student prepare by reading, talking and playing word games together. When your child reads, boost comprehension skills by asking questions, such as "What was the main idea?" Above all, keep standardized tests in perspective. They are only one measure of your child's ability.

Help your child get ready to concentrate
Kids need to be able to concentrate when doing schoolwork. Here are some techniques that can help: When your child is about to tackle an assignment, offer this reminder: "Think through what you are going to do." A mental picture can make concentrating easier. You can also let your elementary schooler choose a fun activity to earn when the work is complete, such as playing a game with you. It may help your child persist through a tough task.
