Children of educated parents learn more, study better, and have a greater chance of success in life. |
Dr. Martin states that educated parents will buy their kids books and will try to engage them in various cultural activities from a young age. When those children start school, they will understand things in a different way and will probably have higher grades too. They will know how to read, count, and their mind will be much more developed.
Giving all these things it is only natural for them to perform better in class. They begin school with a huge advantage and will not lose it on the way. But how exactly can parents offer their children this advantage? What should they do? Every might start at home, but how can parents actually help their kids?
Nearly all countries participating at the study managed to get over 90% of ten year old students to a level of proficiency in science and math. The United States were not included in the study. However, in 2011 98% of the America children in the fourth grade reached a proficiency level in math, reading and science. Only five countries witnessed 35% of their pupils reaching a higher performance in these subjects.
The study emphasized the idea that fourth graders that come from homes with educated parents tend to achieve better results in school. TIMSS and PIRLS have several reports from parents related to the educational activities kids engage in. Children who are taught to read from a young age, who play clever games with their parents, and who come from an educated family can perform better when they go to school. The study highlighted the huge benefits of being a good reader from a young age.

Early education is essential for a good start in life, accompanied by parental support |
Kids who engage in diverse literacy activities will do better in science and mathematics. Students who have reading problems and cannot express themselves find math and science particularly difficult. Hence, reading is vital to achieve success in school and do well in life. Reading is the glue that holds everything together. It helps children develop faster, understand the world better, and have a brighter future. Parents should teach their children to read before going to school and must offer them a good education.
