Tip of the Week

1.Encourage kids to collect things. Whether they collect rocks, shells, leaves, or bugs is not important. But by collecting, children are learning new ways to make sense out of their world.
2.Estimating is an important math skill. We estimate how much our groceries will cost. We estimate how much time weŽll need to complete a project at work. You can help your child learn to estimate at home. HereŽs one idea: As youŽre driving, estimate the distance to your destination. Then estimate how much time it will take to get there. Use the odometer or a map to check your work.
