Spot #1

Announcer: Here’s a “help your student succeed” tip from the experts at the Illinois Education Association.

Talent: Students learn so much from homework assignments, not just about the subject matter, but about personal responsibility and the importance of time management.

You can help your student with homework by establishing a routine.

Designate a regular place and time to do homework.

It’s a good idea if your student has a break and something to eat before getting started on homework.

Turn off the TV at homework time. Music is helpful for some, so consider your student’s learning style and whether music is appropriate.

Finally, be interested and available to talk to your student about what’s been learned so far. Your interest shows the student that school matters.

When teachers and families work together, kids learn.
