Fun Friday was all about homework?

A very funny video about a not so funny topic: good ol' homework. As part of Fun Friday we watched a great video! It was chocked full of all kinds of tips for staying on top of your assignments. Students don't receive a whole lot of homework at this grade level, but it's good to develop an excellent work ethic at a young age.  

Some of the tips and strategies include: 

  • get to your homework before it gets to you
  • have a healthy snack prior to starting your work
  • start with the hardest questions first to get them out of the way and then everything else seems easier
  • it's best to do your work as soon as you get home
  • whining, complaining or procrastinating just prolongs the task and can ruin your night or weekend
  • homework is a part of life and in most cases, students do homework nightly right through graduation of college or university
  • ask your teachers for help if you're not understanding your homework assignments
My hope is that after today's video and discussion, the boys and girls picked up a tip or two that will help develop excellent life-long work habits!
