" Hi! My name is Ann and I am here to talk to you about homework tips. One great tool to use is to use homework to help you study for test. What it means is that you help your child be systemic in organizing all the various homework assignments for the various classes that you are doing and a real nifty tool that I have found throughout the years is to use a notebook. To make sure you put all that homework in a notebook and date it. That way you see the sequence of skills and information and as the semester progresses you do not all of a sudden see this pile of homework and think “Oh! my God, what was the first assignment, what was the third assignment etc.” So if you put it in notebook, punch holes and put it in notebook, date it, you are ready to go for those exams and again what is important here is to be organized to not lose materials that will assist you in helping your child be successful and do well on exams especially the middle school and high school level is a real challenge. Thank you."
