Give
them a break
Believe it or not, kids need to
unwind, too! After a long day at
school, help boost your kids’ energy
by giving them 30 minutes to an hour
of free time before they start
homework. Offer them a protein-rich
snack like Tyson Any’Tizers, or let
them play video games of hang out
with their friends.
Help
your kids prepare and organize
Set them up for success by teaching
them simple ways to organize. Start
by giving them a notebook or agenda
so they can write down their
homework assignments and plot their
schedule each day. Seeing a list of
their tasks will help them
prioritize and use their study time
wisely.
Create a homework routine
Determine a start time and estimated
end time to help your kids stay on
track. Set aside a distraction-free
study space – a desk or table in a
quiet room where your kids can
spread their books out and study.
And plan time to review completed
assignments together. THis will help
ensure the accuracy of their work,
and give you an opportunity to offer
praise and boost their confidence.
