The Importance of Homework

Homework is not simply busy-work assigned to children to keep them occupied at home. Homework assignments and studying serve several educational needs that are essential to receiving a complete education. They provide an opportunity for children to develop self-discipline, study habits, and time management skills. Children can set homework goals and enjoy a feeling of accomplishment when the goals are met. Children learn how to be independent and responsible. They practice taking initiative by beginning projects on their own and studying when necessary. Homework also closes the gap between school and home. Learning should happen at home as well as in school.

Please practice reading, writing, listening and speaking the following topics below. Please use the CD attached at the back of the book. Online resources can be used for extra practice.

The Importance of Holiday Homework Homework set prior to a lesson can aid understanding later in the class. Homework

also provides opportunities for reinforcement of work learned

during school time and for children to develop their research skills.

Your child’s ability to bring an assignment home, gather and

organize necessary materials to complete the assignment, return the

assignment and receive a grade, strengthens his or her sense of

responsibilities. Time management skills are learned. There is also

improved development of personal skills such as time management gained by

completing homework. Further, when homework proceeds smoothly it can become

a positive aspect of your relationship with your child.

The homework should be done on an A4 sheet.
