Homework Notes from November PTA Meeting

The November PTA meeting discussion focused on the District Homework Policy and how to help your student(s) at home. Below are links to the handouts from the meeting.

California State PTA Handouts:
Help with Homework (English and Spanish)
Homework Strategies for Busy Families
Estrategias de tereas para familias ocupadas
Homework Help for Kids with Special Needs

Every child is different, so each will find different homework strategies and environments work best for them. The handouts below will help you identify your child's learning style and provide suggestions:

Learning Styles - Read about the characteristics of different learning styles to see if your student tends to be an auditory, visual, or kinesthetic learner. Check out these Suggested Aids for Learning Modalities. (from Learning to Learn, Incentive Publications, 2004)

Left/Right Brain - Check out the dominance characteristics to determine if your child tends to be a left or a right brain learner. Then read these Suggested Aids for Left/Right Brain Learners. (from Learning to Learn, Incentive Publications, 2004)
