Learning and working at home
It’s that time again. Children of all ages are going back to school. You wave goodbye as they trudge to the bus stop or perhaps you participate in the carpool drop-off.
If they’re older, you cross your fingers every time they get in “that friend’s” car. The house may feel empty after a long, hot summer, but once the children get home, they will need space that fosters the focus and organization necessary for reading, studying, and completing homework assignments.
Assess your home to see whether a spare room, a corner of a playroom, or even a well-organized section of the bedroom will do.
The goal is to establish a designated area where the child can engage in various educational activities. This workspace should be away from noisy areas of the house, allowing children to immerse themselves in their assignments without disruptions.
