Back to School – Are you looking for ways to encourage your child to develop effective study habits?

Encourage your child to develop effective study habits early on.

These habits lay the foundation for academic success and lifelong learning skills:

• Consistent Routine: Help your child establish a consistent daily routine that includes dedicated study time. Consistency helps reinforce learning and creates a sense of discipline. 

• Designated Study Space: Create a quiet and organised study area where your child can focus without distractions. This space should be well-lit and equipped with necessary study materials. 

• Time Management: Teach your child to manage their time effectively by using tools like calendars and planners. Break down tasks into manageable chunks and set realistic goals. 

• Active Learning: Encourage active learning strategies such as summarising material in their own words, creating flashcards, or teaching concepts to someone else. Active engagement enhances understanding and retention. 

• Healthy Breaks: Remind your child to take regular breaks during study sessions to prevent burnout. Physical activity, snacks, and short breaks can help them recharge.
