Coping With Homework Horrors
Help your child complete homework with a minimum of tears.
By GreatSchools Staff
Even if your child is an excellent student, you can't assume that he will always
Jutifully do his homework. One day he may eagerly attend to his schoolwork and
:he next he might be obsessed with sports and dances. Here are some helpful tips for
:aming wandering minds during those times when academic enthusiasm lags.
Set aside a regular time and location for study. Give homework its own special
:ime and place and if your child is in middle or high school, let her set her own
chedule.
Take it step by step. Children may get overwhelmed by the amount of homework
:hey have to do. Encourage your child to calmly figure out what needs to be done
md how much time it will take and then create a plan. Help your child break each
ssignment down into manageable steps.
Provide a quiet, well-lit environment. It's best to do homework in a room that
aas good lighting and is relatively quiet. This reduces distractions and helps to main-
:ain concentration.
