The Holidays are on the Way!
But now.... it's time for class.
Your child has put in an immense amount of work this semester. Being so close to Christmas Break makes it easy to lose sight of school assignments. Let's help our children finish strong by offering encouragement to keep going, and guidance to getting the work done.
Keeping students focused and committed before the holiday break can be a challenge, but there are strategies that can help:
Set Clear Goals: Help students understand what needs to be accomplished before the break. Break down tasks into manageable chunks and create a checklist or schedule.
Stick to Your Routine: It is easy to get derailed as the holidays approach. Try to stick to your routines as much as possible. Keeping your daily tasks consistent will help your child to stay committed to waking up for school, completing homework, and getting to bed on time.
Use Positive Reinforcement: Recognize and reward their efforts and achievements as they make it one day closer to the holiday break. Positive reinforcement can motivate students to stay focused and committed.
Provide Support: Offer guidance and support when needed. Students might feel overwhelmed; providing clarity or extra help can make a big difference.
Communicate: Keep informed about your child's progress. Collaboration between teachers and parents can further support the student's commitment. Check the Student Progress Center, and reach out with questions you may have.
Stay Committed to Seeing Your Goals Through to the New Year.
