How to help at home
Read the same article or chapter and compare what each of you thinks the main idea is. Ask your child to find the sentence that proves a claim. Evidence is the whole game now. When they write, have them read it aloud; ears catch what eyes miss.Source: Texas Education Agency, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, 19 TAC §110.6.
