But when the same bell rings at the end of the day, it\u2019s not always clear what students should do next.\r\n\r\nChildren spend 83 percent of their waking hours outside of school. This presents a large window of time to make a positive impact that will help youth in school and for the rest of their lives.\r\n\r\nAt United Way for Southeastern Michigan, we understand that how children spend their time after school and during breaks has an enormous impact on their overall well-being and their readiness for the future. <a href=\"https:\/\/unitedwaysem.org\/es\/blog\/united-for-success-after-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Por eso trabajamos para aumentar el acceso a programas extraescolares y de verano asequibles.<\/a>\r\n\r\nLo m\u00e1s importante es asegurarse de que su hijo tenga una forma productiva y un lugar seguro donde pasar las horas despu\u00e9s de la escuela. A continuaci\u00f3n, le ofrecemos algunas ideas para mantener a sus alumnos interesados y aprendiendo incluso despu\u00e9s de que termine la jornada escolar.\r\n<h2>Prepare una comida saludable<\/h2>\r\nCooking and eating together helps strengthen family bonds.\r\n\r\nChildren of any age can assist in the kitchen. Younger kids can help stir or gather items from the fridge. Older children can chop vegetables or help with prep work.\r\n\r\nTry adding one unique ingredient while cooking together. During dinner, discuss the item\u2019s flavor, texture and where it comes from. For more information, check out our tips for building <a href=\"https:\/\/unitedwaysem.org\/es\/blog\/tips-for-building-healthy-family-mealtime-habits\/\">h\u00e1bitos alimenticios saludables<\/a>.\r\n<h2>Encuentre un programa extraescolar<\/h2>\r\nEvery day, one in five American children spends time after school alone and unsupervised because they lack access to a quality after-school program.\r\n\r\nUnited Way supports initiatives like <a href=\"http:\/\/discoveryourspark.org\/program-finder?utm_source=uwsem&amp;utm_medium=all&amp;utm_campaign=launch\">Descubra su chispa<\/a>, una herramienta en l\u00ednea que ayuda a los padres a encontrar programas extraescolares que se adapten a los intereses y horarios de sus hijos. Las actividades incluyen deportes, ciencias, matem\u00e1ticas, artes y mucho m\u00e1s. Muchos de los programas son gratuitos o de bajo costo y se ofrece ayuda econ\u00f3mica.\r\n<h2>P\u00f3ngase creativo<\/h2>\r\nWith just a few affordable items in a reusable tote, you can create a travel craft kit that kids can utilize at home or with their after-school care provider. Include construction paper and glue, along with unexpected items like aluminum foil and clay. Then, watch your child\u2019s imagination soar.\r\n\r\nOr, have your child make new creations out of old items. Instead of throwing away recyclable items like cans and boxes, add them to the kit and challenge your child to make something new.\r\n<h2>Programe tiempo para leer<\/h2>\r\nJust 20 minutes of reading a day can help build your child\u2019s listening, memory and vocabulary skills and lay the foundation for their future success. Reading also opens a child\u2019s mind to the world, which can help improve social interactions.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s never too early or too late to start reading together. In the evening, set a timer for 20 minutes and settle in with your child\u2019s favorite book. Afterwards, keep the learning going by discussing one or two ideas from the passage.\r\n\r\nLooking for more books? <a href=\"https:\/\/unitedwaysem.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/ELC_Flyer_New-Programs_V2.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Comunidades de Aprendizaje Temprano de United Way<\/a> ofrecen a los padres acceso a numerosos recursos y materiales, y varios de ellos incluyen bibliotecas de pr\u00e9stamo gratuito.\r\n<h2>Encuentre un tutor<\/h2>\r\nSi su hijo necesita un poco de ayuda adicional con las matem\u00e1ticas o la escritura, un tutor puede ser un gran recurso. Es posible que haya tutores disponibles en la escuela de su hijo, as\u00ed que aseg\u00farese de preguntar a su maestro o a la administraci\u00f3n de la escuela. El socio de United Way, 826michigan, tambi\u00e9n ofrece <a href=\"https:\/\/www.826michigan.org\/our-programs\/tutoring\/dast\/\">clases particulares gratuitas<\/a> De lunes a mi\u00e9rcoles para estudiantes de entre 8 y 18 a\u00f1os. Su programa se lleva a cabo en la Detroit Robot Factory, en Eastern Market. Empareja a tutores voluntarios con estudiantes que necesitan ayuda con los deberes en un entorno seguro y propicio.\r\n\r\n<em>Para encontrar m\u00e1s programas extraescolares en su zona, visite <a href=\"http:\/\/discoveryourspark.org\/program-finder?utm_source=uwsem&amp;utm_medium=all&amp;utm_campaign=launch\">descubridsuchispa.org<\/a>. <\/em>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<!-- end .container -->\r\n\r\n<\/section>","":null,"settings":""}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
