As students progress in school, many families question whether their children's learning reflects "real" knowledge. Report cards can be misleading.

- Ask that teachers explain the data behind their grades
- Share in your children’s learning by reading together
- Request application activities to support instruction
- Show children how math and reading applies to real life
