Then you ensure that the child sticks to the time limits each day – they would need to complete their daily homework schedule before they can watch TV or play games.
If they finish all the homework that can be completed on a particular day before the time limit is up, you could ask them to work on a larger assignment due later on, or read a storybook together.
Some kids have a tendency to become highly anxious or upset about making homework mistakes. They’re worried that they’ll be embarrassed or humiliated in class if a teacher or fellow students discover any errors.
This leads to them giving up easily or being overly cautious when it comes to completing homework tasks.
One way to get a child to overcome this fear of being wrong is to practice writing answers on their mini-whiteboard before they put their final response in their homework books.
Wipe it clean and start again
The great thing about using a mini-whiteboard is that you can make unlimited mistakes AND IT DOESN’T MATTER. You can just wipe it clean and start again – as many times as you want.
This allows the child to work with considerably less stress, reducing the potential for adverse reactions or angry meltdowns.
They’ll be more open to giving it a go if they don’t want to start, or finishing within a reasonable amount of time if they’re taking 2 hours to complete something that should take 30 minutes.
