As we begin a new calendar year, thoughts turn to changes that we can make to be better. As parents, there are several changes that you might want to consider to help your child be more successful in school.
DEVELOPING GOOD HOMEWORK AND STUDY HABITS
1. Create an environment that is conducive to doing homework. Your child needs a permanent workspace in his/her bedroom or another part of the home that offers privacy.
2. Set aside ample time for homework.
3. Establish a household rule that the TV stays off during homework time.
4. Be available to answer questions and offer assistance, but never do your child's homework for him.
5. Take steps to help alleviate eye fatigue, neck fatigue and brain fatigue while studying. It may be helpful to close the books for a few minutes, stretch, and take a break periodically when it will not be too disruptive.
6. If your child is struggling with a particular subject, and you aren't able to help him yourself, be sure to contact your child’s teacher so that you can work together on solving the problem!
