Summary
Details

Finally, here is a comprehensive, down-to-earth plan to turn homework from drudgery into a genuine learning experience for both parent and child, and make even the most resistant child interested-even enthusiastic-about their schoolwork. Friendly and full of anecdotes from the authors' own child development practice, Hassle-Free Homework includes-

The Six Week Plan- A guide to developing learning skills, including organization, motivation, memory, and concentration.

Homework Hotspots- Concrete tips for helping children with specific subjects, like math, science, spelling, and other problems areas.

Homework Helpers- Show how physical activity, music, visual arts, and the home computer can be homework motivators, and list recommended educational computer programs and books.

""Through well-constructed and constructive approaches, the Clarks show that homework can represent an opportunity rather than a burden.""-Howard Gardner, Harvard University, Graduate School of Education
