Children are not as experienced as adults in understanding the benefits of being well organised. This is a skill that adults have because they can see ahead to the consequences if they don’t have productive systems in place. Kids are also naturally prone to getting distracted from their homework, so here’s an action plan for the new year to tackle the task.
DESIGNATE A STUDY AREA
It’s hard for your child to stay organised and focused on homework if they are surrounded by their bedroom clutter, such as piles of clothes everywhere. It’s hard to focus on homework in an uncomfortable chair, or with younger siblings running around, or someone else watching TV in the room. Constant distractions will work against your child’s homework tasks and greatly affect their productivity.
If your child does not already have one, start the year with a designated study area where they can focus in peace and comfort. This could be a corner in the living room, or a space in your child’s bedroom - either way, create a functional study area away from distractions, with good lighting and a comfortable chair.
Get your child involved by letting them choose the desk (or desk colour), chair or a few cool accessories to organise themselves. The more onboard your child is, the better the chance they will take ownership of the space and actually look forward to doing their homework there.
