there is a lot to do, a lot of transitions to navigate, and often a sense of blues as the realization that summer has, once again, gone by too fast.  However, you can easily turn back-to-school anxieties into positive anticipation for a great school year with the following action plan.  Plug these steps into your calendar right now and see what a different they can make!<br /> <br />One Week before School: Week of Preparation</p> <p>Day 1 (seven days before school):  Ease into a "school" bed-time schedule.  Slowly transitioning into a "school" sleep schedule ensures proper rest and encourages a positive attitude towards going back to school.  </p> <p>Day 3:  Create a place for everything, so everything will be in its place.   Designate one basket for each child to store his shoes, bookbags, and jackets.  Give each child a container filled with standard homework supplies that can be transported from, for example, the kitchen to the computer room.  Finally, establish a place for each child to store extra papers from school -a section of your file cabinet or a designated box under his bed.</p> <p>Day 4:  Purchase supplies.   Keep the supplies minimal and simple.  Fancy folders and notebooks are bulky and hard for students to use.  The best system to use is a one-inch binder with a plastic folder for each class, keeping all folders in one place.</p> <p>Day 6:  Set goals with your children.  Help your children look forward to the new school year by having each person (including you) share at least two goals for the new school year: one academic goal and one "fun" goal.  <br /> <br />First Week of School:  Week of Routines</p> <p>Day 7 (night before school):  Have a "Sunday Night Meeting" every week!  Each member of the family should grab their planners/calendars for a 10-15 minute "meeting."  Ask your children what they have scheduled for the week (such as sports practices), share your plans for the week (children like to know what to expect, so tell them if you will have a late night at the office or will have to attend a meeting at school), arrange rides home from after-school activities, etc.  Your week will be much less chaotic because everyone will be on the same page!</p> <p>Day 8:  Establish a routine for papers that need your attention.  Purchase magnetic clips for each child and post them on the refrigerator.  Have your children clip papers here that you need to fill out, sign, etc.  (Expect to spend four hours filling out back-to-school papers this week.)</p> <p>Day 10:  Get ready for school at night, before you go to bed.  Avoid chaotic mornings and forgotten school supplies by having everyone pack up their homework, bookbags, lunch/lunch money, etc. before they go to bed.  They should also set out their clothes, shoes, and jacket at night, too. <br />Day 11:  Is everyone using their school planners?  All students need to use a homework planner!  Check planners every night until they are part of everyone's routine.  </p> <p>Day 12:  Clean out bookbags once a week.  Cluttered book-bags are the root cause of lost assignments and must be cleaned out regularly.  (The Sunday Night Meeting is another good time to do this.)<br /> <br />Second Week of School:  Week of Cooperation</p> <p>Day 14:  Hold your second "Sunday Night Meeting" of the school year.  </p> <p>Day 15:  Give each child a choice about something today.  The more you can give your children choices, the more cooperation you will get from them, especially when doing homework.  Some choices may include giving two options for dinner or two different times to do their homework.  When you give choices -and honor their choices- your children feel empowered and will be much more cooperative.</p> <p>Day 18:  Catch your children being good today!  Improve cooperation by giving compliments to your children.  Keep them specific and succinct (most children are embarrassed by mushy-gushy compliments).  For example, "Thank you, Kristen, for coming home and starting your homework right away.  I appreciate that."  Positive praise works wonders!</p> <p>Day 21:  Give yourself a break!  Congratulations, you have survived the first two weeks of school and you are well on your way to a happy, productive school year.  Celebrate by scheduling some time for yourself.  You deserve it!</p> <p>(c) 2008 Susan Kruger, All rights reserved.

(Yes, we had TV as kids. Some of us even had video games, too.  We are not that old…) </p> <p>You did it because you wanted to get a good grade.  Or, you did it to avoid having to answer to your mom who would give you "That Look" and ground you until you were dead.  Or, you did it because it just needed to be done.  </p> <p>So, the real question is, "Why don’t students seem to care about homework?"  There are a variety of possible answers, but the best advice I can offer is this…</p> <p>Ask them!</p> <p>You, of course, can provide additional insight.  Share your experiences with homework when you were younger and then explain why you value it as an adult.  The more relevance children see to the "real world" the more likely they are to value homework.</p> <p>Meanwhile, I would venture to guess that many of their answers will sound like these:</p> <p>* "What’s the point? Why do I need to do it?"  <br />* "It takes too much time!"<br />* "Homework causes fights in our family."<br />* "It’s just a couple of assignments…what’s the big deal?"<br />* "I lose my homework a lot."<br />* "I don’t know how to do it."</p> <p>Each of these responses could inspire their own book, but we will settle for a few quick comments:</p> <p>"WHAT’S THE POINT? WHY DO I NEED TO DO IT?"</p> <p>The child who asks this question is begging to understand a real-world purpose for homework.  They need help understanding that homework is not just practice on the topic taught in class, but practice for developing responsibility.  Homework may not be fun, but completing it on time is good practice for the day when they are employed and have to complete a project on time.  It is practice for paying bills and keeping a roof over their head.  </p> <p>Doing homework helps build responsibility skills in the same way that lifting weights build muscle.  They literally program neuron pathways in the brain that develop responsibility.  Developing "responsibility muscle" will directly impact their ability to earn more money in the future.</p> <p>"IT TAKES TOO MUCH TIME!"</p> <p>Homework takes too much time because students do not know strategic learning skills for doing homework more efficiently.  They are also busy "multi-tasking" by doing homework while texting, watching TV, or surfing the internet which is a major time drain.  Teach your children time-management and study skills to help them cut homework time or enroll them in a study skills class.  </p> <p>"HOMEWORK CAUSES FIGHTS IN OUR FAMILLY."</p> <p>As I have said many times, homework is the greatest lever of control that a student has over their parent(s).  They may not quite realize they are striving for control, but they do know that they don’t like being told what to do.</p> <p>"IT’S JUST A COUPLE OF ASSIGNMENTS.  WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL?"</p> <p>Children are often oblivious to the impact one or two "zeros" have on their overall grade.  Encourage them to track their grades so they can see the math for themselves.  If your school makes grades available electronically, have them log in and see how their grade changed after that big ‘ol "0" was plopped in the homework column.  In 95% of middle and high school classes, students can pass with a "C" if they simply turn in all homework and show up for tests and quizzes.  It’s not rocket science... but they think it is until they see the math for themselves.</p> <p>"I OFTEN LOSE MY HOMEWORK!"</p> <p>In most cases, your children do not deliberately lose homework.  Imagine if we, as adults, had several different email accounts to manage each day?!?  We would be completely overwhelmed and frustrated!  The same is true for students who are trying to manage dozens of papers along with a couple dozen folders, notebooks, and textbooks that must be transported to-and-from school and individual classes each day.  Students need a system to simplify and streamline all of their supplies. </p> <p>"I DON’T KNOW HOW TO DO IT."  </p> <p>Children are often afraid to ask for help.  Their teacher may have offered help to the class and posted "Tutoring Lab" hours on the board, but many are afraid to step forward and admit they need help.  Or, they may simply believe that the help is for "someone else" and may not realize the potential value for themselves.  As you know, there is almost always a resource for students who are willing to get extra help.  Some may simply need an extra nudge.</p> <p>The key to this discussion is to listen 85% of the time.  Let them be honest about their feelings towards homework and acknowledge them.  Brainstorm problem-solving ideas together and allow your child to have some ownership over some solutions.  </p> <p>On my website you can download a free Homework Rx Toolkit that includes "25 Ways to Make Homework Easier Tonight."  Use that do*****ent as a starting point to identify workable solutions together.  As the parent, you have to set expectations and boundaries, but you can also set the stage for cooperation.</p> <p>© 2009 Susan Kruger, All rights reserved.
