Homework in Progress - Postitive Feedback Counts - 4

Not on an empty stomach:

Growing brains need food to thrive. Feeding your kids before they do homework ensures an alert brain that isn't preoccupied by a hungry stomach. And though many doctors would advise healthy snacks over sugar-filled treats, you can always consider chocolates and fast food as achievement-based rewards. Remember those incentives at the office? Well, it's more or less the same funda!

Positive Feedback Counts:

Perhaps the best way to encourage your child's homework productivity is to use encouraging feedback. On the other hand, if he/she errs at what 'you' think is a mundane topic, do not vent your office-frustration on the kid by giving a 'sound' trashing. Let them know what they did right, and why they came to the wrong conclusion. Kids need patience, dear parents!

Homework in Progress : Make it a Quiz Time - 3

Working with a partner has many advantages too. Though the 'quizzing' one another exercise is mostly done during the crunch exam times, this habit (with an added dose of fun) can be inculcated for daily homework too. The individual asking questions too tends to learn just as much as the one answering. Every now and then, you can also take a common quiz, or say general knowledge and sports-based questions to develop the quizzing habit.

Same Time, Same Channel:

Once you have figured out what can be the best time for homework for your kid (minus the several tuition/cricket breaks and TV programmes out of his/her schedule!); make sure it becomes a time slot. Homework done at the same time every day gets the mind and body tuned to a routine. Once a routine is established, the brain will automatically be ready to soak up information. If there are no assignments for the day, take the time to review material.

Protect your grandparents with Medical Alarm

I know what you are feeling when looked at above picture. If I am not wrong, you feel that your parents or grandparents are now in safe hands. I understand that when parents or grandparents get more former then they are at high risk about their health problems. Naturally, the question rose in everyone's mind that is it possible to allow our grandparents or parent alone at home? Is it really dangerous for them? How we help if some sort of accident take place to them? We realize the thing that we are not in position to help them due unavoidable circumstances. No doubt every time we think to take care of them about their protection. In some cases, we people can afford to hire a health professional or a nurse to take care of them when you are at the work. But there is possibility that they slipped out to do their job. In fact, the spending money for getting 24 hours attention is also not affordable.

If you are in search for 24 hours security for your parents and grandparents then I am strongly recommend to just get medical alarm from well known company named "BrickHouseAlert.com". This is the high technology product known as Medical alarm especially made for your parents and grandparents. This website brings up two devices known as Home Fall Detection and GPS Tracking Bracelet with 2-way speakerphone.

These two products are available and best known for the medical alarm. When you are at the work and your parents or grandparents who always depends on your help fall down and no one is there to help them. Here the working of Home Fall Detection begins. The fall detector automatically senses the fall and calls the 24-Hour Monitoring Center. Within a fraction of second you are connected to a trained Emergency Response operator who dispatches help immediately and then help is on the way of your home. Here the cycle of Home Fall Detection device completes. Just imagine, what you saved? No doubt, everything, that you never counts in terms of money.

I truly like the BrickHouse Alert Mobile GPS bracelet that has been suitable for me as I am often to travel. Guys, it has a panic button that get in touch to a central monitoring system and a built-in cellular speakerphone that gives up the user to contact family members or doctors in case of a sudden unforeseen crisis that requires immediate action. I have never ever seen here before such type of everlasting product that has been useful at home or for personal emergency monitoring. Its GPS tracking technology serves the purpose to give contiguous help wherever he/she can be located. I think, not only these two products but also you can get most important information about other products of BrickHouseAlert.com. If you realize the need of such medical alarm then just surf at this website or contact their representatives at 877-63-ALERT to get the medical alarm.

Homework in Progress : Regular overview - 2

Immediately before your child begins homework, it is wise to confirm what is expected. If the material is workbook-related, read the instructions and headings. If the assignment is an essay, read the required elements. Work should only begin once expectations are perfectly clear.

Asking him/her about this would also inculcate a sense of inquisitiveness after it all gets over; or at least after the term gets over.

Work in Pairs

Many kids learn better in small groups. By completing homework with someone who has a similar aptitude for a particular subject, joint learning takes place. The saying, 'Two heads work better than one" comes to mind. It is, however, needless to say that caution must be exercised while giving permission for this. For all you know, your child's partner may turn out to be a worse brat than yours, and would drain out the remaining motivation for homework.
