I'm not sure if it is because the kids had been off from school for almost three weeks. But when the three in school went back last week it seemed like they weren't focused as much as normal with school. They got to go to Laser Quest, Triple Play but come to find out that none of them had done their school assighments. Just like every weekend come Sunday they have do get their school stuff ready, make sure all the homework and books are done. Well this last weekend our oldest didn't bring one piece of paper not only that but he didn't bring home his book that he is suppose to read and test on. As you can probably tell this has been turning into a struggle lately. Yesterday I wrote up a whole new routine including the household chores and school assignments, the day they have all their tests on. We have or should I say I have been alittle more relaxed when it comes to school before friends and fun. So now it is all up on the fridge, and each one of them are to mark off after each thing is done. Then they can watch tv, play games and call friends. I am hoping this will help me and them in keeping up with their studies. I'll give this a try and let you know how their grades are in about 6 weeks. Wish me luck!!
It's a good idea! With my kid's school... they have their "Homework Page" we can keep track off on the school webpage!
