Homework Help
Here are some hints to help homework time go more smoothly:
1. Set aside a consistent time to do homework so that it becomes routine.
2. Have important materials such as pencils, pens, paper, a dictionary, close by so that time does not have to be wasted getting started.
3. Be available for your child so that he/she can ask for assistance when needed.
4. Take a short break if needed so that your child does not become frustrated.
5. Do not do the work for your child. If you come to an assignment that the child does not understand, send a note back to the teacher to inform him/her that your child needed extra assistance. Working together as a team will help to gain the best support for your child.
