[quote=Anonymous]I have two high achieving kids. One needs zero follow up and is completely self motivated and able to stay organized and on top of everything with no input from us. My other child needs more help. I wouldn’t say he isn’t motivated, he just procrastinates and is less organized. What works for us is every day after school, I ask what homework he has due tomorrow. I tell him to give me a time he is going to start work, then I follow up on if he is actually starting at that time. I also peek at work intermittently and make sure progress is being made. While I don’t read or correct content, I will check how far along they are. If they have been “working” on homework for an hour, and I see nothing or very little has gotten done, then I troubleshoot with him what’s going on. As for tests, that is on them mostly. I will just do the same follow up. I ask them when test are and leading up to it check in how studying is going. [/quote]
