Math Homework Guidelines

It is amazing the things we just assume that everyone knows how to do

, like riding a bike or going for a swim or even brushing your teeth. But the only reason we can do these things is because we were shown and taught how to do them properly. Not many people see a bike for the first time then hop up on it and start doing wheelies, why then do we assume that kids know how to do their math homework when in reality they have never probably been shown how to do it right.

First we start off with the common sense basics that everyone should know

1) You need a quiet distraction free place to do your homework. Music and TV dont mix well with homework.

2) Dont leave your homework until the last minute like just before bedtime or while eating breakfast. Do your homework shortly after you get back from school so its not hanging over you.

3) Focus and dont get bogged down in the detail. If you are spending way too much time on a piece of homework, just try your best and move on. Homework shouldnt take all night.

Those were the easy ones but the most important. Do the simple things right and homework becomes much easier. If you get into the habit of doing your homework straight after school you will really find that you do a better and quicker job.

Now that weve shown you how and when you should attempt your homework how do you ensure you do a good job?

First off Id say is tackle the homework you least enjoy first. If you put this off and leave it until last you will inevitably do a tired and rushed job on it. If you love English, Ill bet if you leave it until last youll still put in the time and effort it needs.

For the more complex subjects like math it really helps to have a study guide or some reference material that covers the math topics you learnt in class. Of course you have your textbook but this can be a struggle to follow and how often do you come home knowing how to do your math because you got it in class then open the textbook and get confused? I would recommend if you have access to an internet connection to try an online tutor service. For math, these can be exactly what you need to reinforce the concepts you learnt in class, ensuring you have the knowledge for life. Studies have shown that if you revise a math topic a couple of hours after first learning it, the knowledge is much more likely to stick. Modern innovative online math tutors offer video homework help explaining the concepts in your textbook and are now as cheap as $25 a year.

So remember that math homework doesnt have to be a struggle.

1) Setup a routine of doing your homework early in a quiet distraction free place.

2) Focus and do the difficult parts first.

3) Get an online Math Resource to help revise.

Then get out and enjoy yourself, dont let homework ruin your day it really doesnt have to be that hard.
