*Find a set spot to do homework- try to keep distraction (TV, etc) to a minimum.
*Keep needed supplies (pencil, colors, scissors, glue) close by this spot, if not at this spot.
*Try to do homework at a set time each night.
*Make it your child's responsibility to take work out and put work back in his/her folder and backpack. A reminder is okay but don't do the work for them!
*Be encouraging. If something seems too hard, takes too long, or seems to frustrating, take a break and come back later or contact your child's teacher. |
