Fifth grade is the last year of elementary school. The skills and knowledge that children develop this year will follow them throughout the rest of their education. Study habits begin to develop. Skills learned this year apply to higher education.
To help your child be successful, assist them in developing proper study habits now. Set a homework time everyday and provide a place to work with limited distractions. Ask them questions about what they’ve learned. Together check your child’s agenda every night to ensure all assignments have been completed.
Keep an open line of communication with your child’s teacher. Together we will make this year a learning and productive year.
