Set a time limit during evening assignments. Let the child himself suggest to you how much time he will need to complete this or that task. Then gently ask him: “How long should I set the timer for? How long do you think it will take you to complete the task? Maybe a little less/more? Then set a timer and remember that the child must work without distraction during the time allotted to him, so that nothing distracts him from doing homework.
He can't even be asked questions until the timer runs out. The purpose of this process is to help the child learn to solve problems on his own, fully concentrating on them, and getting rid of various help, parents, help with papers, friends and teachers. This not only strengthens the child's concentration, but also develops creativity, critical thinking, perseverance and a sense of timing. Dividing the amount of work into small portions of time helps a lot to relax children, frightened by the amount of homework.
Parents can support each completed task with praise. An exclamation like “Another task completed! Great job!” helps the child feel that what he does matters.
By turning homework into a ritual, with a discussion of what and how to do and how long it will take to complete the tasks, you keep the child company and support him in his evening work, help him complete the tasks faster and much better than he would have done by oneself.
