I’m the director at Heritage Learning Center in McKinney, Texas, a childcare and preschool center. We use this work as a good way to establish good study habits. It is important to reinforce the correct study behavior while children are young and when the work load is easy. As children become older with more time consuming assignments, they will then have the ability to handle it effectively. We work with the children every day after school in small groups and one on one to make sure they finish their work properly and understand it before they are given the freedom to participate in the various activities and Clubhouse amenities that we have on campus. Just imagine, whenever your child comes home from his 10th grade English class, he immediately starts writing his paper instead of waiting until 10 p.m. Homework can sometimes seem monotonous, especially when teachers give daily focused assignments.
