Making Homework Less Work

The famous words “Homework! Oh, Homework!/ I hate you! You stink!” from poet Jack Prelutsky have resonated with many children and their parents for years. If homework is a drag for your household, I can help. I am available to speak to parent groups about strategies they can use to help after-school work feel less burdensome. Topics in my one-hour presentation include:
How to be a good homework coach for your child
Avoiding forgotten homework assignments
Strategies tutors and teachers use to motivate children to get started on work
Routines that help children stay focused on work
How to teach children study skills
How to help children improve their work quality so that it consistently meets school expectations
