The most successful readers in school are those who read at home!

Point out letters and numbers.
Help them count objects.
3. Make sure your child has fine motor skills.

4. Practice being independent.
Have them to go to the bathroom without help.
Encourage them to problem solve and do tasks by themselves.
5. Establish a bedtime routine.

6. Talk to them about school.
If they know that you think school is important, they will, too.
