It offers learning supports for online schoolwork and algebra transition during pandemic disruptions, outlines how college searches and applications are being updated, and includes engaging learning ideas such as coloring pages and a family STEM lab. It also covers building work habits, managing teen screen time, and strategies for emotional well-being.","September 2020  \nClark Advanced Learning Center Debbie Kohuth, Executive Director/Principal  \nUpdate house rules  \nThe start of the school  \nyear is a good time to talk with your teenager about your rules and to make any changes. Discuss reasons behind rules (keeping her safe, making sure schoolwork gets done) and consequences for breaking them. Then, post the rules on the refrigerator so she’s clear about expectations.  \nNice to meet you!  \nGetting to know your high schooler’s teachers now opens the door to communication throughout the year. Email each teacher to introduce yourself. And let your teen know you’redoing this—he’ll see that you’re working with his teachers to help him succeed.  \nColoring books aren’t  \njust for little kids. They’re available for all ages and on just about every subject, from Shakespeare to science. To find coloring books or printable pages, your teen can type a topic she’s studying (say,“cells”) and“coloring pages” into a search engine. It’s a fun and relaxing way to learn new things.  \nWorth quoting  \n“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.”Albert Einstein  \nJust for fun  \nQ: Why do pelicans carry fish in their beaks?  \nA: Because they don’t have pockets.  \nIn gear for a new year  \nWhether your teen is an incoming freshman or a rising senior, you probably have questions about the new school year. These answers can help you get your high schooler off to a good start—during a challenging time.  \nQ: How can I support my child when he does schoolwork online?  \nA: Suggest that he start by organizing files on the device he uses for school. Also make sure he knowshow to access online materials for every class. If a class meets via video chat, remind him to avoid off-topic private messages and to follow rules for using his microphone.  \nQ: My teen was taking algebra I when the pandemic hit, and he’s worried algebra II will be too hard. What can he do?  \nA: Reassure him that everyone’s probably a little rusty, and his teacher will help to bring students up to speed. Encourage him to pay attention when the teacher reviews algebra I material. He might also look at last year’s assignments to brush up on formulas or terms he isn’t clear on.  \nQ: What is the college search and application process like now?  \nA: The situation is changing rapidly, and [each college is different.

At nacacnet.org/)[news--publications/coronavirus/](news--publications/coronavirus/), your child will find current information from individual schools about testing requirements, campus tours, and application dates. Regardless of any changes, he should continue working with the school counselor to ensure he takes the right courses to reach his goals.   \n| A family STEM lab |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Make STEM an ongoing family affair with these ideas for creating a lab that your highschooler can take the lead on.\u003Cbr>1. Collect items. Have your high schooler fill a large bin with project supplies like cardboard boxes and tubes, paper clips, rubber bands, string, tape, glue—and anything else for building or creating.\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>2. Do projects. Let your teen post a list of ideas to try. She might design a rubber-band helicopter while you build a model cantilever house.\u003Cbr>3. Hold a STEM fair. Set aside a night to share your projects. Your child can show how her helicopter flies, and you could explain how a cantilever works.  |  |\n\n© 2020 Resources for Educators, a division of CCH Incorporated  \nBuild strong work habits  \nWhy do some teenagers put in the effort to see a project through while others give up or don’t give it their all? The difference often lies in their work habits. Motivate your high schooler to strengthen hers with these tips.  \nConnect the dots. Have your teen think about the “Why?”behind hard work.
