Children and teens thrive on structure.

While some students are very self-sufficient or self-motivated, others may need more help in building habits that lead to academic and executive- functioning success.

All children benefit from teaching and reinforcing good study routines at home.

Quick Tips: Work with your child on a daily routine. Allow your student to collaborate or take lead on designing their goals.

- Visual agreements, checklists or routine steps may be helpful.
- Review until habits become ingrained. It may take a few revisions to get it right.
- See resources below for time management worksheets and strategies.
- Build in breaks and use timers to stay on track.
- Review progress with your students and help them self-evaluate what went well and what may need improvement/revision.
Each student should have a consistent and quiet workspace.
Check PowerSchool (where assignments/grades are recorded) and Google Classroom (upcoming assignments). Provide accountability and reinforce positive progress.
