Many schools are planning to take a \u201cscaffolding\u201d approach, Huinker said \u2013 moving ahead on grade level mathematics, but inserting lessons on whatever students might not have learned well enough.<\/li>\n<li>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95227\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95227\" style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95227\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/08\/backtoschool-deann-web250x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95227\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">DeAnn Huinker<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Show children that you have a positive attitude toward math \u2013 don\u2019t use phrases like \u201cI was never good at that.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Over the summer and at home, take advantage of relaxed activities to show children how math is used in everyday life. Have them help you double quantities in a recipe, for example.<\/li>\n<li>Remind students that most people don\u2019t do mathematics perfectly every time. Trial and error is part of the learning process.<\/li>\n<li>Realize that math is something we all have to work on; it takes work. Huinker likes a \u201cSesame Street\u201d episode that focuses on the word \u201cyet.\u201d A child may not know how to attack a math problem, \u201cyet,\u201d but they can figure it out eventually. \u201cYou aren\u2019t just magically a math person. It\u2019s something you have to work on.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>A few resources Huinker suggests for families are Bedtime Math and Mini Math, free apps that offer fun activities based on real world math, such as dividing a pizza. \u201cRough Draft Math\u201d is a book that shares the idea that mathematics, like writing, is a process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Reading and literacy<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Summer is a good time for parents to encourage reading and literacy in a relaxed atmosphere and letting their child follow their interests, Habeck said. \u201cDuring the school year, reading can be very intense. In summer, don\u2019t worry about the quality, look at the quantity.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95230\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95230\" style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95230\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/08\/backtoschool-Habeck-T250x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95230\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tania Mertzman Habeck<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Look at reading and literacy experiences beyond traditional stories, and let children follow their interests. \u201cMy boys are big fans of Minecraft, and they read fan fiction about it in their spare time, Habeck said. \u201cIt\u2019s not something a teacher would use, but boy do they love them.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Similarly, youngers learn and grow in confidence by reading \u201chow-to\u201d instructions \u2013 whether it\u2019s reading a recipe or mastering a new skill in a video game.<\/li>\n<li>Reading to children or having them read to you also helps with literacy, Habeck said. With today\u2019s busy lives, that may be a challenge. Habeck notes a clever way one family approaches this: The family chooses a book to read and gathers in the kitchen while making dinner. Parents and children take turns reading.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>General back-to-school<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Relax and trust the teachers and the schools. \u201cEvery single school district and every single school is thinking about what is going to be the best approach for these students, knowing that the last year and a half was not ideal,\u201d Huinker said.<\/li>\n<li>\n<figure id=\"attachment_95231\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95231\" style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95231\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/08\/backtoschool-brownson-web250x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-95231\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jennifer Brownson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Remember that children have been learning virtually, so they\u2019re not starting all over.<\/li>\n<li>Use the pandemic as an opportunity for teaching children about science, history and social sciences, Brownson said. \u201cInquiry is important in these subjects,\u201d she said. So, talk to your children about the science behind viruses and vaccines and the impact the pandemic has had on not only the U.S., but the world. \u201cEncourage them to ask questions.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Help children who\u2019ve been away from in-person learning or unused to working in larger groups prepare for going back into the classroom by discussing, or even role playing, what the experience may be like, Brownson said. Some may jump right in, but others may be more hesitant about the sudden togetherness.<\/li>\n<li>Discuss how school may be different this year because of social distancing and perhaps masking. \u201cThey will need to get used to the physicalness of being in the building\u2026 They need to know what it feels like emotionally,\u201d Brownson said.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Above all, the three experts agree, communicate and collaborate with teachers and the schools. Find the best ways to communicate with schools and teachers \u2013 whether that\u2019s email or an online forum set up during virtual learning, Brownson said. With pandemic protocols still in place, it may not always be possible to just pop into the school for a chat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce the school year begins, be open and supportive,\u201d said Huinker. \u201cAsk what more can I do to get my child ready, and be ready to offer help and support.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a mostly virtual school year last year, back-to-school season feels very different this fall.
