Homework helps reinforce material and skills that are taught in class, introduce material for future lessons and teach students how to apply learned skills to new or multiple subjects.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>At our school, parents and guardians are an integral part of the learning process, and are encouraged to be active participants in homework assignments. Numerous studies show that parents can have a positive impact on how a student values homework. Parents can even speed up a child\u2019s learning by becoming more active in supervising homework.<\/p>\n<p>Seeing how children handle homework is a direct indication of how they are doing in school. If a child is struggling and taking a lot of time to complete homework, that\u2019s a good time for a parent to contact his or her teacher so everyone can work together to help the student. The more active a parent is in a child\u2019s education, the better the student\u2019s chances of being a well-rounded citizen, which is something we emphasize at La Paloma Academy.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some tips for parents to maximize their child\u2019s at-home learning with homework:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure your child has a quiet, well-lit place to do homework with no distractions like TV, visitors, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Be positive about homework because children will pick up your enthusiasm and be more motivated.<\/li>\n<li>When possible, during homework time, parents can perform tasks that utilize skills the student is practicing (balancing checkbook for math, writing letters for reading\/writing, etc.) to show real-life uses of homework skills.<\/li>\n<li>If the homework assignment includes parental involvement, cooperate, but if the assignment is to be done by the student alone, stay at arm\u2019s length.<\/li>\n<li>Keep in touch with your child\u2019s teacher, and know what the purpose of his or her homework is and what the class rules are. Studies show that the more active a parent is with a child\u2019s homework, the better the communication is with the school.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Homework&#8221; might not be one of the most welcomed words in a student\u2019s vocabulary, but it\u2019s a necessity of their learning process.
