Lesson 4: Practice Makes Better
Summary
In this week’s lesson, your child will learn that it’s important to practice and keep trying in order to get better at something they want to learn.
Try This at Home
Encourage your child to choose something they want to get better at (such as, tying their shoes, adding or subtracting, writing their name, dribbling a ball, or snapping their fingers). Set aside a few minutes each day for them to practice the skill, and highlight the progress they’re making.
