How to help children with homework?


A common cause disagreement and conflict between parents and children, just the homework assigned. Each has at least one parent asked do we need to help your child about homework and why their child has so much or so little homework. Child where it is needed, we have to help with homework. 


This does not mean that the task should be written for him, for the boy to take it as their own incompetence, and it will be difficult to realize that it is his obligation that must be carried out regularly and well. Try to develop the child's responsibility to carry out their duties. You just need to help him, and they do not carry it for him.

First Child explain what he does not understand, point him for the mistakes and encourage him to just correct.

Second We should not constantly sit with the child while writing task. It is important that your child know that you are available to him and that you can turn to for help, asking what he could not understand.

3rd Sometimes a child needs only review the homework to make sure that it is well settled its liabilities. Do not impose on him the task in which it is not necessary.

4th To reduce learning time opportunities distraction. Turn off the television and radio until the child writes homework or while learning. The child table shall be neat and clean. It would also be good for the child handle all other tasks before writing tasks to avoid them thought.

5th Well at the beginning of the school year to arrange a time when the child will write homework (upon arrival from school, after lunch, after a rest after the game ...), in order to avoid misunderstandings later.

6th That the child was well homework or tutor, has to feel good and be rested. If the child came home from school sad or angry, you first need to speak with him and help him to get rid of unpleasant feelings, and then insist that we accept the job. You let your child to rest as it rested brain faster and better understood, a tired body interferes with the brain in his work.

7th Except those imposed by parents on helping children with homework, parents often wonder how the children are learning to be effective, and thereby feel good. Here's what you can try:
As with homework, it is desirable that children still learn the same place. Just sitting in the place, where the child is accustomed to teach, creates a psychological readiness for work. It is also desirable that the child writes his homework about the same time of day, because it allows him to have enough time for homework and for the intended play and rest.

8th The place where children learn, and also writes the task, be it large enough and illuminated. At this point the child must be able and keep your books, stationery and other supplies for the school.

9th If your child is a space for learning and writing assignments arranged in a room that is shared by other members of the household, he needs while learning and working to ensure peace and tranquility. Ideally, the desk in the room because the child's homework and learning in a separate place that starts osamostaljivati.

10th On the wall next to your desk, you can put a child on board which the child-it notes pasted various reminders.



11th It is important to explain to your child exactly what is expected of him in terms of learning. Keep your expectations high enough, but realistic given the child's abilities.

12th They should also explain to your child why learning is important and beneficial for him. Children, just like adults, and prefer to work better when you see the sense in it.

13th Encourage your child to ask what he could not understand because it is difficult to learn without understanding. Therefore, it is desirable to make the material more comprehensible and meaningful, eg.associate it with old knowledge, the association's come up with the material and the like.

14th It is important to teach your child to assess what is important to be a short summary of the committed repeated material. These summaries are important because they represent a meaningful skeleton around which the later ease "catch" details.

15th Never place a child read the lesson, write a summary and let him learn. Most valuable part of the learning process just mentioned work on understanding the material and separating the important from the unimportant. If your child is learning at summaries, will learn mechanical, material will quickly forget, and when the teacher asks a question differently than you do, they will not know the answer.

16th Help your child discover the best way to learn. For subjects such as geography, history and the like where there is a large amount of information to be remembered explain how the child learned a lot in the beginning it should be repeated. For it can be used and brief moments of free time like a walk / ride to school, waiting for buses etc.. Note that there is no universal strategy of learning that fits all children and enable the child to try more of them (paraphrase his words, creating issues for which it is assumed that it could be a test, learning in pairs or groups, drawing a visually appealing graphical display of what should learn to write short notes or reminders, inventing stories, walking room while learning etc..) to find out which of them suits him best.

17th Allow your child to learn and outside the home and school. Make it to the library, the leisure and the like.

18th Praise each child's success, especially efforts and progress. More important is that the child is ready to make an effort to solve the problem and that is progress, but what has been scored.

19th Remember that children learn by imitating the important people, mostly parents. Looking at you, kid learns to appreciate it and what to do. Therefore, if the parents read, play educational games, valued knowledge, the children will probably do the same.
