As a parent, you play a vital role in your child’s education. By providing support and encouragement at home, you can help your child develop the numeracy and literacy skills needed to succeed in school. Here are some tips to help your child excel in numeracy and literacy:
• Encourage your child to read regularly. Reading helps to develop vital language and comprehension skills. Try to create a warm and welcoming reading environment at home, with plenty of books and magazines for your child to enjoy.
• Help your child to understand numbers and operations. Use everyday opportunities to talk about numbers, such as when cooking or shopping together. You can also encourage your child to count, add, and subtract while playing games or doing puzzles.
