Below are two articles I thought parents would find helpful and interesting. Although they are written for a teacher audience, the information and resources shared can certainly be helpful and relevant for parents.This first article addresses the idea of grit being a determination of success, as well as how to go about modeling grit and teaching grit to students. It is full of additional resource links that may be helpful or interesting. True Grit This second article discusses close reading and strategies for close reading. Many folks really are not sure what close reading is or why it is important. It is a newish focus with our shift to the Common Core and this article may be helpful in understanding what we are doing in school and how you can be helping your child at home. Strategies for Close Reading Thank you so much for your continued support and for all you do at home to support your child's success and creativity!
