Homework Tips for Parents


Parent-Monitored Homework Helps Students Do Better

Students whose parents monitor their homework have a tendency to do better in school. Here are some suggestions or tips:

  • Ask to see your child's Homework Agenda each night. Make sure he has written the assignment neatly and has the necessary books and materials to complete the assignment.
  • Listen to work that requires memorizing, such as spelling words, vocabulary words, important dates in social studies, and times tables.
  • Check to make sure that assignments are completed and are done neatly.
  • Review notes a night or two before a test with your child. Ask questions about the material in the notes.
  • Remind your child to put homework and books back into backpack when completed.
  • Sign or initial your child's Homework Agenda so that the teacher knows you have seen it.

Doing these things lets your child know you are interested and care about his work.
