Reading - Make reading a daily routine for the whole family. Have a set time that is safe from all other activities and his a high priority for everyone. Set reading goals for time spent focused on a book without distraction, for reading a harder chapter book or for AR points to help encourage your child to strive for more! Maybe have a friendly family competition!
Math - Play a fun and lively game of "Longer Than, Shorter Than!" Pick any object in your house and make an estimate of how long it is. If everyone agrees that the estimate is reasonable, that person picks either longer than or shorter than for the next person and the second person has to find an object that is longer or shorter than the first. Use inches, feet, yards, centimeters or meters to estimate lengths!
Writing - Do you keep a grocery list at home? Do you have to write important dates down on the calendar? Do you leave a note for the babysitter? Let your child do the writing!! Every opportunity to write is a great time to practice spelling, handwriting and the structure of the writing!
