Making homework easier
Homework is a part of life
Lots of kids are given homework by their school.
Sometimes you might enjoy doing your homework, other times you might find it really hard.
Here are some ideas to help you.
Get ready to study
Have a healthy snack and try to do something active before starting your homework.
This helps your brain to focus and study well.
Find a good place to study
Find somewhere quiet away from everybody so you can focus.
Stay away from anything that might grab your attention like your iPad or the TV.
Make sure you're nice and comfy!
Do one bit at a time
Break your homework into smaller bits and create a list.
Once you've ticked something off, reward yourself with a quick break!
It’s ok to ask for help
If you’re finding your homework too hard or you’re not sure about something, ask for help!
You could ask your parents, brothers, sisters or your teacher.
