Two words for Thursday: Break and Choice
Build in breaks to your daily learning routine. Chunk an assignment – which means do a few problems/questions and take a break – come back and do a few more. Taking breaks will go a long way and help your child learn better. Also give your child a choice for what he/she would like to work on first. A simple choice will let him/her feel some control in this situation. The last thing you want to do is create a power struggle! Enjoy your day, enjoy your kids – remember: break and choice!
