6 ways to improve your

child’s study habits

their children’s schoolwork, they show     

more interest in school and do better      

than it. They also develop confidence,     

responsibility and independence.  Here’s  

 show you help children with homework.   

 

1. 1. Plan a regular home work time

Remind kids when it’s time to do homework and help them get started. Remind firm regardless of any protests or excuses. By being consistent, you’ll facilitate consistent results.

2. 2. Be available to answer questions

You may want to read or work nearby while kids do their homework. Encourage them to try solving problems themselves first before they turn to you for help.

3. 3. Cheer them on

Speak specific work of praise often. After an especially challenging lesson or project, give kids a small reward, but avoid using reward bribe.

4. 4. Post a study calendar

Kids can pencil in their homework times, due dates and test dates on it. For larger projects, help them break them down into steps and write these steps on the calendar.

Kids can write down what they are assigned each day, so they won’t forget. This is also a good place for keeping a list of classmates’ phone number to call when they need help.

6. 6. Keep in touch with teachers

            Meet regularly with your children’s teachers to stay aware of

            the subjects they’re learning, special projects and teachers’

            expectations.
