The place where a child’s learning commences is home and throughout her life, the people who teach maximum to a child are her own parents. Several researches by the educationists have established the fact that the early the involvement of parents in their child’s education begins, the stronger is her academic performance.
So, in order to make your child perform well at school and take up her education sincerely, these are a few steps that you must follow:
- Spend ample time with your child and do not let her lose interest in studies, despite your hectic routine. Make it a habit that you discuss with her, all that happened at the school and help her to improve her performance.
- Maintain a healthy, happy and lively atmosphere at home and keep involving her in various household activities every now and then, when she is not studying. However, do not let her diver her mind to other thing while she is studying, e.g. turn off the TV.
- Help her do her homework and make her practice what she learns in the classroom, daily. Notice what her favourite subjects are and what she enjoys learning the most. Also, observe what tricks or techniques she uses to learn her lessons.
- Always spare some time for both, you and her, to do something together. It may include reading a new story book, learning a new rhyme or gathering facts and gaining knowledge over a new topic altogether.
- Allow your child to get sufficient time for herself and do the things that she enjoys doing alone. Set a routine for her which enables your child to find her ‘Me’ time along with all the school and outside activities and your ‘We’ time.
