http://www.byroningraham.com/131-raising-socially-smart-kids-with-cheli-cerra   Cheli Cerra is a Parent Strategist, Child Success Expert, Author, Coach and School Principal. She works with busy moms to strategize social, emotional and academic wellness for their kids. Guest Expert on Fox News, Author, Founder Eduville.com.  Cheli's journey into the entrepreneurial world began simply by helping parents navigate the school system to find the help they needed for their children.  Over time this morphed into helping them find the resources for their children online.   Parents today have a multitude of choices when it comes to providing an education for their children.  No longer are they simply restricted to the schools in their local area as there are virtual schools they can access as well.   One thing that is important for parents to understand is that the education system today is much different than when they were at the same age as their children. One of the keys to success in education for children is communication.  It is imperative for parents to listen and communicate with their children on a daily basis.  Monitor what they are doing on social media.  The more involvement the better.  You want to know who they are connecting with online.  While there are many people who are good in the world, you have to protect them from those who have ill intentions. A critical point in children's lives is when the reach the 5th grade.  As they are more aware of the world around them at this age, it is important to instill leadership skills so they may be solidified. In the event the grades a child is receiving is not satisfactory, begin with the teacher, followed by the principal.  If satisfactory improvements are not seen, then locate another school.  In the public school system, it is possible to do what is known as a hardship transfer.  You have to go to the central district office and explain why you want another school choice. One of the areas of controversy in many school districts is the common core curriculum.  The whole concept behind the program is to instill critical thinking which is different than the way past generations learned.  Traditionally, children were taught one way to reach a solution.  However, within common core children are taught to arrive at a solution in a variety of ways.  This is vital for success in today's world as often people must develop solutions to meet an ever changing world.   A great way to instill leadership within children and gain an understanding of the program is having your children teach you what they have learned.  In this capacity, it reinforces what they are learning and helps the parent learn more about what is going on in school.  As children are growing it is important to expose them to what is going on in the world.  Restricting what they can and cannot experience within the home might sound like a good idea, but you will not always have control over what they see outside of the home.  By exposing them to what is happening in the world, and helping them gain an understanding will help them make proper decisions as they are out and about.  A great tool that is available to enrich any child are virtual tours of museums.  Most museum websites offer these types of programs, or you can simply look on platforms like Facebook &amp; Periscope to find live streams from people who are actively visiting exotic locations.  In this manner, a child can experience various aspects of the world all from the comfort of their own home. The One Thing parents should do is be aware of what their child is actually learning.  Ask them questions about what they have learned.  You want to ensure they do not fall behind where they are supposed to be.  Remember asking questions help children think which goes far behind memorizing.  This will aid them in their scholastic career and ultimately the rest of their life.
