Plan a special activity to celebrate the end of the school year. Take your teen out for ice cream or fix a favorite meal.
Ask your teen to draw a diagram of something he or she is learning in school.

Take turns naming the most memorable news events of your lifetimes.
Remind your teen that respectful language includes body language.
Good posture and eye contact show respect. Eye rolling doesn’t.

Create trivia questions about your family. Quiz one another at dinner.
Ask your teen to tell you some free or low-cost things you’ve done together that he enjoyed. Make plans to do them again.
Will your teen apply for a summer job? Have her ask teachers and others now for permission to list them as references.
