Tips for 5th Grade Parents

Your encouragement and support are extremely important in helping your 5th grader develop their reading skills. In 5th grade students learn how to analyze and summarize what they read.

Here are 3 ways you can help your child at home.

1. Have family reading time, when everyone in the family reads.
2. Read the same book or online article (as your child) and discuss what you find important and interesting.
3. Come up with an interesting question and challenge your child to find the answer online.
