Homework Tips
|
|
Designate certain areas for homework and studying.
Eliminate as much distraction as possible. Most
young people study in their own rooms.
Ensure that your child's desk has enough space to
spread out their materials. Always have school
supplies available, for example: pencils, pens, paper,
notebooks, erasers.
Make sure your child is sure of when assignments
must be handed in to the teacher.
