Video Transcript

" Hi! My name is Ann and I am here to talk to you about homework tips. One of the many situations as a parent that you face especially in the upper grades, elementary school and the middle school is where you are involved in a group project. Your son or daughter is in with a group of students and they have to complete a task or a project or report. What do you do? As a parent it is important to supervise the group to make sure they are on task to make sure that they are not, that they are all working together to meet that goal that no one is doing all the work that they are equally distributing the work among the group and each student has a specific assignment within the group to complete the assignment. It is always good to as the parent to make sure that the children are respecting each other and taking turns to find the various information you need for the project and again a snack is always handy and a great incentive for the kids."
