Your Child, Ages 7-11
Dear Parents,
As the school year winds down, take some time to review your child's Language Arts skills. Is your third-grader, fourth-grader, or fifth-grader performing at the appropriate level? If not, our Language Arts skill-builders and printables can help. You can also take a look at the top ten ways to improve reading skills, and the top ways to get your kids to read.
This issue also answers parents' questions about allowance and chores. How much should you give your child? Should an allowance be tied to doing chores? What are age-appropriate chores?
And finally, we offer some ideas to keep summer fun. When your child says, "I'm soooo bored," try some arts & crafts activities, catch some hot summer movies, plan a yard sale, and more.
