Involving Parents in the , Reading Process .1 Curriculum of the Home Parents are their children's first H and most influential teachers. What parents do to help their children learn is more important to academic success than how well-off the family is. Parents can do many things at home to help their children succeed in school. Unfortunately, recent evidence indicates that many parents are doing much less than they might. For example, American mothers on average spend less than half an hour a day talking, explaining, or reading with their children. Fathers spend less than 15 minutes. They can create a "curriculum of the home" that teaches their children what matters. They do this through ' their daily conversations, household routines, attention to school matters, and affectionate concern for their children's progress. Conversation is important. Children learn to read, reason, and understand things better when their parents: read, talk, and listen to them, tell them stories, play games, share hobbies, and discuss the news, TV programs, and special events. In order to enrich the "curriculum of the home," some parents: provide The Dalles tops White Buffs 79-75 A cold first half is where the Buffalos dug a hole and couldn't get out of as The Dalles Indians came away with a big win as the game went right down to the wire with the score at the end 79-75, in favor of The Dalles. This was the second loss to the Indi ans, as they ran their record to 7-3, in league play, and 10-6 over all.Phillip Miller got himself into foul trouble in the final period and missed most of the quarter, as he ended up with 20 points for the night Jake Suppah popped in 5 three pointers as he contrib uted 19 points in the losing cause. At the half the score was 47-34, but the Buffs made a run at the Indians and led with about two minutes to play. Bad turnovers and mistakes gave the game away. The Dalles led 24-1 5 at the end of the first quarter, 47-34 at the half and 62-56 at the end of three and the final score of 79-75. Buff scoring: Miller 20, Suppah 19, Jacks 17, Riddle 8, Kirsch 6, Johnson 3, Foltz 2, Barnes, For The DallesLeBreton 24, Cummings 21 .Huges 14, Schwinof 10, Aldridge4,Habberstad6,HoltLaduke.b In ancient Greece, box ing match began with two boxer standing face to face, their notes touchino.

Parents stay aware of the their children's lives at school when they: discuss school events, help children meet deadlines, and talk with their children about school problems and successes. Research on both gifted and disadvantaged children shows that home efforts can greatly improve student achievement. For example, when parents of disadvantaged; children take steps listed above, their children can do as well at school as the children of more affluent families. Exercises: 1. Plan time to talk and listen to each child. Combine this with chores and activities: take walks, exercise, dry dishes, wash the care, do yard work. Let grandparents and older brothers and sisters help. Plan special reports: "Remember everything your teacher wears tomorrow so you can draw me a picture." "Let's trade memories of what we think about at lunch." 2. Plan family conversations at mealtime. A. Watch television for 10 minutes, then turn off the set and discuss what you saw. B. Take turns telling something you learned: the price of tires, a neighbor's name, how to add fractions. 3. Treat school, homework, and activities like important jobs your child is doing. Let your child hear you tell others how much you admire their teacher, her work, her school, her friends. via New Chief On December 19, 1994 the Warm Springs police department welcomed Enes Smith on board as the their new Chief of Police.
