Reward.
Homework rewards don't have to be elaborate,
although you may want to up the ante for a struggling
child or one who is hard to motivate. A reward can be something
as simple as a fun activity when they finish. But you can also
keep a homework incentive chart and let your child earn a special
activity with mom or dad, some extra screen time or a new book
or school supply.
Don't be afraid to speak up.
If you think too much homework is coming home, that
your child isn't familiar with the material or that they
are struggling, don't be too intimidated to schedule a conference
with your child's teacher. Most teachers welcome feedback and
want to help your child succeed.
