Parenting Your Third Grader MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY PHASE IN YOUR CHILD'S LIFE You have approximately 936 weeks from the time your child is born until he or she graduates from high school. It goes by fast, and kids change and grow quickly. It's as if they shift or move on just as you're starting to figure them out. It all makes the responsibility to shape a child's faith and character feel overwhelming. Parenting Your Third Grader is a concise and interactive guide that simplifies what you need to know about third graders in general and gives you a place to discover more about your third grader, so you can make the most of this phase. Your kid now has more permanent teeth than baby teeth, and you might be in one of the best phases of your child's life. THIS IS THE PHASE WHEN FAIRNESS MATTERS MOST, DIFFERENCES GET NOTICED, AND YOUR ENTHUSIASTIC KID THINKS ANYTHING "SOUNDS LIKE FUN!" Discover... About the Phase Project The Phase Project, including this guide, is a synthesis of personal experience, academic research, and gatherings of leaders and educational experts from across the child development spectrum. Designed in partnership with Parent Cue, this guide is one volume in an 18-part series to help you parent your child through every year.
I enjoy reading these books each year. My favorite parts of this one were the children’s recommended reading list, the ideas for ways to have fun with your third grader, and the recommendation to get your third grader in the kitchen more with you.
