Subject: RS: Back-to-School Ideas
Our ward used this theme for homemaking (now known as "enrichment")
night. We had one sister who is an elementary teacher give a class on
homework help. She prepared a shoebox with school items (pencils,
pens, tape, glue, scissors, small dictionary, paper, etc.) that a child
might need to complete a homework assignment.
She told us to keep this "Homework Survival Kit" in a central location.
It was only to be used for homework, not for art projects for the little
ones! Ideas were exchanged on how we as mothers can best help
our children complete their homework. She discussed a quiet
area, with no TV or radio playing, and also talked about where the homework
goes after it is done so that the morning rush of looking for homework
was eliminated.
Hopefully you could find someone in your ward who is a teacher and
could give this mini-class!
