JUST SLEEP ON IT: Studies confirm that children need a full six to eight hours of sleep every night to produce chemicals in the brain that stimulate learning. How a student performs at school has more to do with how they are sleeping than anyone expected.

AVOID FIRST-DAY STRESS: The first day at a new school can be very stressful. Ease your child's anxiety by scheduling a visit before the first day of classes to get acquainted with the teacher, classroom and class schedule.

JUST SAY NO TO NEGATIVITY: Don't share negative attitudes. Avoid sentences like "I don't like math," or "studying history is pointless." What you say and do affects your child's attitude. Show the pleasures and practical uses of the subjects he is studying.
