Setting up and Organizing a Study Space

Establishing an organized workspace where students may work uninterrupted in their home can be one of the most important tasks for students and parents to accomplish for the new school year. Make sure that the workspace is stocked with all of the supplies that may be needed for the year like pencils, pens, erasers, paper, calculators etc. The Student should take ownership by designing or helping to design the workspace. Students should be encouraged to keep their workspace organized. Help students develop and maintain a homework and study routine, taking into account life's other demands such as sports, music, and other after-school activities. Uninterrupted also means limited or no phone calls and social networking while studying and doing homework unless the networking or texting is related to the task at hand. Research has shown that it takes approximately 6 weeks for new habits to become routine so a dedicated effort for at least a month and a half is required for the study routine to become second nature.
