Let’s face it:Homework can be almost as frustrating for parents as it is for kids.Getting kids to do their homework can be a challenge,and when they do sit down to study,a host of other problems can emerge.But your child’s study sessions don’t have to stress out the whole family.
Doing homework may not be as fun as playing video games or chatting with friends,but it shouldn’t be something that kids dread.“Homework should inspire students rather than bore them,” says Sharon Marshall Lockett,author of Home Sweet Homework.Your child’s assignments should not be busywork,she says,but should help him build a skill,test a skill,or learn something new.
You can help by being a homework monitor,stepping in to answer questions or offer encouragement,but not doing your daughter’s assignments for her.Supervising your child’s homework gives you a chance to see what she’s learning and how well she’s grasping the material.It helps you understand her learning style and shows you care about her education.
Many kids resist studying by asking why they have to learn things they’ll never use in real life.If your son shows little interest in his assignments,you can make them seem more relevant by pointing out ways you use the math and language arts skills he’s studying in daily life.
A common rule of thumb for homework is 10 minutes per grade per night.So a child in 3rd grade should have 30 minutes of homework,and a child in 6th grade should have one hour.Two hours per night is often recommended as the maximum for a high school student.Keep in mind that some students work faster than others.If your child does not understand the material,it may take him longer.If he’s especially bright in that subject,he’ll finish sooner.
Parents who feel that their kids are overloaded can be vocal,but they’re in the minority,says Harris Cooper,a professor of education,psychology,and neuroscience at DukeUniversityand a longtime researcher on homework.He points to a 2007 MetLife survey in which about 15 percent of parents said their kids had too much homework.About 60 percent said the homework load was just right,and 25 percent thought their children had too little homework.
If you think your child takes too long to finish homework,try to determine whether the problem lies in having too much work or managing time poorly.“One of the things homework is supposed to do is to teach time management and self-discipline,” Cooper says.
Make Homework More Fun
If your child complains of boredom while doing homework,consider shaking up the routine a little to make study sessions more fun.Lockett suggests these approaches to keep kids engaged.
Get help from friends:If your child is struggling with an assignment,let him call a friend for help or invite a friend over to work on it with him.You might also invite neighborhood kids over and let them do homework together.Have them sit around the dining room table and help each other.
Incorporate physical activity:Set mini goals for homework and allow time for stretching,jumping jacks,or a snack after each goal is completed.For a kid who can’t sit still,find active ways to study,such as tossing a football while calling out the multiplication tables or fidgeting with small toys while memorizing facts.
Turn the tables:Let your child teach you a lesson.Let her give you a quiz and a grade.
Divide and conquer:Instead of spending equal time on every topic,encourage your child to hone in on what he doesn’t know and skim the content he has already learned.
Talk it through:Encourage your child to study out loud.By tapping his sense of hearing,your child will be more likely to remember the concept without spending additional energy.

让我们面对它：家庭作业对于家长与对于孩子而言一样都是恼人的。

我们来直面这件事：家庭作业让家长与孩子一样让人沮丧。 Kinds估计是打错了，原文应该是：kids

我们面对吧。家长们差不多和孩子一样对家庭作业闻风丧胆。 你的kinds应该是kids吧？ 望采纳 多谢
