Back-to-School Tips to Ease Transition from Summer Break

As students and parents alike prepare for the start of the school year, we have some tips to help make the transition easier, thanks to Brainly – an organization described as the world’s larged peer-to-peer learning community of students, parents, and teachers. They say you should:

 – Develop a sleep routine now to get your bodies adjusted for waking up early
 – Establish “school routines” to adjust to the hours you’ll be keeping during the school day, including homework time at night
 – Start giving your brain a workout by completing online quizzes and games. It’s estimated that kids can lose up to a month’s worth of   instruction over the summer.

Many parents in our area may already have a head start on this. Brainly ranks Missouri parents as the most prepared in the nation for the start of school.
