Improving Study Habits

Here are some very basic ideas that may help improve your child’s study habits.

1. Have a specific place to study, away from distractions such as the television and other family members who are not studying.
2. Study time should be when your child is most conducive to learning, not when they are hurried and excited for another activity and definitely not when they are tired.
3. Try not to let your child procrastinate on assignments or required reading time.
4. Get involved.

I found a great webpage on homework tips and study skills. It is a quick reference, full of ideas, because of the bullet point format. If you scroll down you will see a checklist for the parent regarding homework. www.acrnetwork.org/parents/homeworktips.htm (America’s Career Resource Network)
