Though it might not besomething students look for-ward to, homework is an es-sential element of thelearning process. Homeworkallows kids to apply the les-sons they learned in theclassroom while giving edu-cators a chance to deter-mine if students are graspingthe concepts discussed inclass or if certain lessonsneed to be revisited.

Students often seek theirparents’ help when doingtheir homework, but parentscan start helping even beforetheir children bring any as-signments home. Creating ahomework environmentwhere kids can concentrateand put forth their best ef-fort is a great way to helpthem throughout the schoolyear. The following are a fewtips for parents who want to

ensure that home is as con-ducive a place as possiblefor students to do their beston homework assignments.

* Find a quiet space withlittle or no distractions. Aquiet place in the homewhere kids can concentrateis essential when kids aredoing homework. While ayoungster’s bedroom mighthave sufficed years ago,today’s children tend tohave bedrooms that mimicthe showroom floor of anelectronics store. If kidshave televisions, video gameconsoles and stereos in theirbedrooms, then that’s likelynot the best environment forthem to do their homework.Kids can too easily grow dis-tracted, so find a quiet areawhere kids can focus ontheir studies without beingtempted by television, videogames or other distractionsnot conducive to studying.

* Designate a time eachday when kids do theirhomework. Another way tomake your home moreamenable to homework is todesignate a time each daywhen kids will study. Letother members of the house-hold know that this is a quiettime in the house so kidsaren’t distracted. Once kidsget comfortable in this rou-tine they likely won’t needmuch prodding to do theirhomework, and this desig-nated quiet time in thehousehold can be a relaxingtime for other members ofthe household as well.

* Have healthy snacksavailable. Few people dotheir best work on an emptystomach, so if kids will bedoing their homework imme-

diately after school, makesure you have some healthysnacks on hand. Elementaryand high school studentstend to eat lunch earlier thanadults, so they’re liable to behungry when they arrivehome from school in themid- to late-afternoon. Haveplenty of fresh fruit on handso kids can satisfy theirhunger. Less healthy snacksmight satisfy youngster’shunger pangs, but suchsnacks may also make kids

drowsy, negatively affectingtheir ability to concentrateand indirectly hinderingtheir schoolwork as a result.

* Let kids know theirwork will be checked nightly.Parents who want to createan environment where theirchildren approach home-work seriously should lettheir kids know their workwill be checked each night,and they will need to redoany assignments that werenot completed correctly.

This prevents kids fromrushing through assignmentswithout giving their best ef-forts.

Few youngsters look for-ward to homework. Whileparents might not be able tochange their kids’ attitudestoward homework, they canchange their home to makeit as positive an environmentfor kids to pursue their stud-ies as possible.

Establishing a positive homework environment for your student

Many students need a quiet environment that’sfree of noise and distractions to perform their

best on homework assignments.
