Homework Communication
It’s important to communicate with your child about what homework they have, and to follow up with them about how they did with the homework. Don’t expect perfection here, instead, just keep the lines of communication open with them so you are aware of what they are doing, and when they do well or are struggling with a topic.
Don’t forget to communicate with your child’s teacher if they are feeling unsuccessful or unmotivated about their homework. You should also talk to your child’s teacher if you feel they are not getting enough homework, or (in most cases) if they are getting too much homework and it’s becoming unmanageable
