How can parents help students with schoolwork?
A. Follow up daily with your child to see what homework they have. Help reinforce at home the program requirement that the student fills out their School Planner each and every day, in every subject, then use this to check for assignments each evening at home. Help your student schedule time so they don’t feel overwhelmed. Realize that you will probably help them with (not do) some of their larger projects. Example: Many parents will make a trip with their child to the Minnesota History Museum for their History Day project, or help them create their display board if it requires building with power tools. Most parents will find pleasure or pride in helping their child grow as they do a larger project.
