The Classroom Feel
In
this day and age, it is so hard for a child to be able to concentrate
on their studies at home. With TV, personal music players, videos
games and computers, many of our children get easily distracted from
their studies. Creating a “classroom” feel at home is one way we
as parents can help our children focus on their school work.
It's
very inexpensive to create your very own home “classroom”. Just a
little creativity and imagination can go a long way. Here's what I
did for my child.
- First, I asked my daughter to put her school stuff in the area I have designated as her "classroom" area. This is to ensure that your child knows that that area is only for school work. As your child grows up, he or she will always designate an area for themselves where they will only use for studying.
- Next, place a desk or table (I found those foldable tables you buy on TV very useful), a chair or stool and a reading lamp so your child will be able to study and do his or her school work.
- Lastly, depending on the age of your child, fill up the area with books, pens, pencils, crayons, pads of paper, basically school materials he or she made need or already uses at school.
Creating
your own classroom at home will help your child pick up good study
habits when he oe she grows up. Your child will find ways to create
their own learning space, just as you have done for them.
