You are important in your child’s learning. While academic learning is important, your child’s mental health and well-being are important too. Your child learns from you all the time, but no one expects you to be the teacher at home. Communicating with your child’s teacher can help you to decide on ways to help your child adjust to learning from home. How you support your child will depend on your child’s age, needs, and the time you have available. Here are some suggestions for all parents and caregivers.
