Make his day with a positive word. A pat on the back, school work on the fridge, a smile and the words “good going”… these are gestures that will motivate your son to love reading and writing.

Do they mean school work on refrigerator? How will it motivate a child? Please explain.

they mean to put the childs papers that he/she does well on, onto the fridge, you know, like with magnets or tape.

this is done because they child will see that everyone knows how well he/she is doing and then will be motivated to continue doing well so that more papers will be put up and they can receive more praise.

In American (and probably other) homes, lots of people have small decorative magnets on the front of their refrigerator to post things, since the front of the refrigerator is metal; it sort of functions as a bulletin board. It's fun to display a child's drawings or good grades on the front of the refrigerator; presumably the person who wrote the sentence feels that would be a good, positive experience for a child.

It means "show pride in your child's school accomplishments by hanging the good papers they bring home from school on the door of your refrigerator."

You show you are proud of the child when you put his or her work up on the refrigerator.

Your child will be proud of himself if you show him that you are proud of him yourself! The point is encouragement!
