A proper home atmosphere for doing homework is important for learning and keeping up in school.The Nemours Foundation offers these suggestions:
* Create an area at home just for homework. It should be well-lit, with all of the supplies that your child needs.
* Set aside a certain time every day -- such as before a snack or after dinner -- to study and do homework.
* Minimize distractions during homework time, including music, television and phone calls.
* Don't do your child's homework. The child won't learn from mistakes if they're yours. But offer help when needed. Praise your child for doing well and trying hard.
* Be involved in your child's school work, and set a good example by reading and working at home, too.
