Homework Tips
In general, students who spend more time on homework do better in
school. Completing homework regularly also helps students develop good
work habits and self-discipline.
● Help your child be organized with schoolwork. Encourage him or her to
write down all assignments in the Student Planner and check it regularly.
● Help your child work independently at home. Plan a daily routine with
a regular time for completing homework. Allow enough flexibility to
accommodate special activities such as music lessons, sports, etc.
● Provide a quiet place to study, away from the distraction of television and
technology such as cell phones, video games and social networking sites.
● Provide basic supplies and resources your child will need, such as
pencils, pens, paper and a dictionary. Other handy items include stapler,
paper clips, maps, a calculator, tape and a thesaurus.
● Show an interest in your child’s work and offer to take him or her to the
library or elsewhere to do research if needed.
