How can I help my child become a better reader?
Read! Read! Read! Read to them. Have them read to you. Read alternating pages. Choose specific words that they, and only they read while you read the rest. Go to the library and have your child get their very own library card.How can I help my child practice counting money?.Every night take the change out of your pocket or wallet and have them count what is inside.

It is perfectly normal for children in 1st grade to write numbers and letters backwards. We don't worry about this in 1st grade. We do make a note and monitor it, though!
