Good study habits should be adopted


Getting children into a good homework routine during their
early years can lay the foundation for a lifetime of good
study habits.

"Parents can teach their children good homework habits by
example," said Dr. Florence Eddins, a child psychiatrist at
Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.

Parents should sit near the child and do some work of their
own. This will give the child an idea of how to do homework.
Flexibility is important. Some children may like to do
homework with music in the background or may need to play
before sitting down to hit the books. It is good to
experiment for a while and see what works best for the child.

Homework success also depends on good communication between
parent and teacher. Learning what the teacher expects from
the child will make it easier for the parents to help with
homework.
