| | | A visual way to learn spelling words
Using a dry erase marker, write your child's spelling words each week on the bathroom mirror. As your child masters each word, wipe the mirror clean. By the end of the week, the mirror should be free of words and your child will be a master speller. The bonus is that your mirror will be shiny and bright with little or no effort on your part. | | | | | | Susan in Coralville, Iowa | Tips Published: 24

| | | Purchase gift cards throughout the school year
Each month purchase a $5-$10 gift card at a local store or restaurant. Place these cards in a small safe or secure location. At the end of the school year (or on holidays), reach into your stack and pull out 2-3 cards. Tie with ribbon and place in a homemade card and you have several gifts to give teachers, bus drivers or even the crossing guard without the expense hitting you all at once. $5-$10 a month isn't noticed but $60-$120 all at once certainly is. Plan ahead, it will pay off in the end. | | | | | | Susan in Coralville, Iowa | Tips Published: 24

| | | How to help children draw stars
All little kids are in awe of their teachers who can make stars. Teach them how to make one of their own. First have them make a "bad" capital A where the middle line extends beyond the sides. Then diagonally connect the lines. It's easy for them to learn and do on their own! | | | | | | Megan in Valparaiso, Indiana | Tips Published: 3

| | | You will never forget school projects again
If your child habitually forgets his/her school projects, homework or lunch box, this is the tip for you. Place the often forgotten item in a plastic bag ALONG with your child's shoes. Then hang the bag on the door knob of the door your child uses to leave the house in the mornings. Two things will remind him not to forget his belongings. One: it will be right there where he will see it and Two: he won't forget his shoes, thus he will see the item he needs to take to school as well. | | | | | | Susan in Coralville, Iowa | Tips Published: 24

| | | Creative end of year gift for teacher
For an interesting end of the year gift that is also practical, have students each write a note to the teacher telling him/her what they liked best about the year. Bind these into a book. Given in a basket of assorted classroom supplies, the gift will be both practical and meaningful. | | | | | | Susan in Coralville, Iowa | Tips Published: 24
