Read! Children need to read or be read to every day. This includes reading to learn as well as reading for enjoyment. Reading should be no less than 20 minutes a day. If you are home all day, a few 20 minute sessions would be great. The Resource Bank has plenty of audio books, story times and online reading available if you are short on books at home.
Write! Your child should do a bit of writing (this includes typing) every day. They can respond to what they read, write a journal or poem, work on a story or essay, or write a "how-to" manual. Kids could even watch one of our live animal cams and write an observation or story based on their expereince. The possibilities are endless.
