Identify and remove the distractions.
What things are stealing your children’s attention away from their homework? By removing the commonplace distractions – especially the Internet, cell phone, iPod, and TV – your student can truly concentrate on the task at hand. Fewer distractions means higher quality work and less time spent doing it! |
Stay resolved.
These techniques are designed to improve your kids’ study habits – but even the best ideas can’t guarantee that they will love doing their homework. When the whining starts, you can empathize so they know you’re on their team: “I get it! It’s no fun to stay inside doing homework on such a nice day!” If the whining won’t let up – tune it out. Ignore the fussing and complaining about homework. Complaints will happen, and responding to them will only encourage your kids to keep them coming. |
