Parents and guardians can help students learn by:
- showing interest in education and in their child's progress
- discussing their child's work and academic progress with the teacher
- praising their child's efforts and accomplishments
- discussing various aspects of school work and activities with their child in a positive and supportive manner
- setting up an appropriate homework area, providing appropriate materials, and limiting distractions
- helping their child find the best time to do homework
- asking their child to explain the assignment to them
- monitoring their child's homework and provide assistance where needed
- letting their child do the work on his/her own before helping
- helping their child draw up a schedule to complete homework or a major project balanced with family time and extra-curricular activities
- developing awareness of the expectations of the Ontario Curriculum
