How Can Parents Help With Study Skills ?
The best place to do work assignments at home is in an organized study spot. It can be as large as a room or as small as a desk, or at one end of the kitchen table, as long as it meets your child's needs. Help your child(ren) find a place that is:

  • Neat. It's hard to study in the middle of a mess. Shelves, files and desk organizers can make a big difference.
  • Stocked. Make sure your child has all the supplies he needs, such as pencils, paper, a dictionary, etc. This reduces disruptions and preparation time.
  • Attractive. Decorations, such as plants and photos, can make a study area more pleasant. But they shouldn,t be distracting.

Tip: Encourage your child to study in the same place every day. Why? Children become "conditioned" to study in one spot. Soon they can automatically concentrate there. (Title I 2006)

Friendly Reminder:

Please review all school, playground, and bus safety rules with your child(ren). We expect all students to observe the Golden Rules at all times:
Respect for Self, Others, and the Environment. Thank you for supporting teaching and learning.
