How can you help at home? • Talk with your child about what we’re learning inschool. • Keep a routine at home, allowing for a good-night’s sleep and healthy breakfast. (A recommended bedtime for a 7-year-old is 7:30 or 8:00. Studies show that developing brains need more sleep to process new information.) • If they are sick, please keep them at homeat least until they are free from fever for 24 hours!
