Homework Help: Tips for parents and kids!

Homework is a perfect way for parents and kids to bond so they can have a better and stronger relationship. Teachers assign homework not because they have nothing else to do but because of a variety of reasons some of which are these: they want your kids to practice what they’ve learned in class, they want parents to be involved in their children’s education and they want students to explore some topics fully because there’s no time in school.

As a teacher, I’ve had my fair share of parents who like to complain about homework. They think that I just want to give them a hard time. I know that with the responsibilities that they have it’s easy to think that way. But believe me when I say that most teachers only have your children’s best interests in mind when they assign homework.

For kids to have a healthy regard for homework, parents have to show their children that they see all homework as important. Here are a few guidelines to help you do this…

Look for a place where you and your kids can do homework

Make sure that it is a place that is free of any distractions so that they can fully concentrate on doing homework. Supplies and other necessary equipment should be found within this place so that no time will be wasted just for finding them.

Set a regular schedule for homework

This is very helpful especially for young children as they are a stickler for schedules. Choose a time that would really work out for you and your kids. If both parents are working, then it would definitely be after office hours. But if only one parent is working, then one parent can do homework time right after your children has had their afternoon nap.

Always be enthusiastic about your children’s education

You cannot expect them to be excited about doing school work at home if they see you showing no interest in what they do at all. Ask them about the things that they do in school and help them enumerate the new things that they learn each day.

Try to regularly visit your children’s teacher so you will know their progress...

Try to regularly visit your children’s teacher so you will know their progress and the areas in which they need to improve on. Attend school activities so your children will see that you are genuinely interested in their education.
