Introduction:-
As teachers help and guide the children at school, so as their
parents can also do the same at home. Parents may foster good habits among
their children either in studies or other co-curricular activities right from
the beginning of their early nursery age. As children learn a lot during school
activities, so as they may learn so many things from their parents.
Parents

scenario. This will make your children feel comfortable. This will create a
habit of self- reliance in your children. This will also provide your children
an environment conductive and suitable for learning and studying.
The

the only thing is to prepare yourself by
virtue of observing your inner capabilities and the capabilities you are
looking to improve. There are certain efforts required to remove the dust and
to create something better which may enrich in you and your better future
prospects.
Some
guidelines and tips are as follow for you and your parents to help children
reach their potential:-
J Have a routine time table for study and other tasks:- One must have some time allotted for learning every day. This
should be done right from the beginning of children’s primary education. This
way your child will get into this habit and your child will get extra time to
hold other tasks at home. Regular study always beneficial to the children who
are sincere about their time table and this will enable them to hold pending
work within the schedule period. It’s a good habit to have regular study time.
J Be sure that there are fewer distractions:- Make sure that your study schedule would be comfortable and
know the areas where your ward is finding some distractions. Distractions
should not be too many. Please ensure that TV is switched off during study
hours and children should not be allowed to have ear phones during study hours.
If you are having more than 2 children, please ask them to
have combine study in one room. If someone not studying, may be asked to have
some quiet time in other room.
J Be sure that you feel fit & fine: - Please make sure that the children
are fit and fine and feel relaxed during study hours. They will feel
comfortable when their stomach is full of eatables and if they are tired.
Children must be asked to finish their extra tasks in time, so that
there should not be any pressure on them during study hours.
J Frequency in regular work and study: - This will be very beneficial if
children’s give stress on frequency in regular work and study. This is very
useful mainly in Mathematics and writing skills.
Regular practice in Mathematics is good for maintaining math skill. As you know that practice makes perfect. This
exercise is very much useful in skill development tasks.
J Organize yourself: - One should be organized; this will not allow you to waste
your precious time. Make sure that the tools which are applied during study
hours are ready and handy. All the devices and tools must be ready in advance
to avoid unnecessary waste of time. Everything should be well organized so that
unpredicted disturbances may be ignored.
J If “no homework” what next? Keep
this in mind: - Sometimes you are
planning about leisure hours. You are not sincere about your free time. If no
study what next you have planned to do? This is very important that one must
plan his/her precious time.
One must have number of
options to use leisure hours like reading interesting books, playing indoor
games, playing brain games, inculcating general knowledge habit, doing yoga
exercises etc. This will develop your overall personality.
J Parents – be relaxed and understand
your child: - Parents must be positive and play the role of an observer
not a teacher. Please observe the other activities apart from study hours of
your child. Do not push them to read the subjects of your choice.
Observation
is good enough for a sincere parent to guide and motivate children. One more
thing is very important that you try to understand your children’s interest and
act and plan accordingly.
J Motivate the children for study and
create this study habit forever: - This is important that one
should know the ways to motivate the children. For this one should have
positive approach while observing the children. First observe the interest of
the children, and then decide the ways to motivate. Motivation is a process in
which children should be praised out time – to – time for their positive
efforts. This will inculcate confident among children and this confidence will
become a habit one day.
J Study in short, but frequent
sessions; - Dear children and parents,
please do try to have short study hours but you have to maintain this by adding
so many frequent sessions , so that you may reduce the stress and may feel
fresh all time. Frequent sessions may help in bringing the contents in
secondary memory of your brain. This will help you to remember the contents you
just read or read a day before.
J Honour your emotional feelings: - Dear children always respect your emotions and feeling.
This will inculcate something best among you all. Act according to your demands
and feelings of your heart. Have future dreams in your mind always but do not
cope with your dreams. Do not let your efforts in vain. Encourage yourself by
virtue of respecting your soul, eternal feelings.
J Revise and review the same day
study contents: - This is very important
that one should try revising and reviewing the contents you read for past few
days. This will create confidence and you will not forget the contents you
read. This is the best way to remember or to recall.
J Use exaggeration as multi approach
study tool: - This is very important that
during studying any content, one should refer additional resources to
understand the concept and try to correlate the same content with additional information,
so that you can reach to a distinct place. This will make you extraordinary in
the eyes of scholars.
J Prepare your study environment in
nearby surroundings:-
It is important to have
a positive study environment around you. This will very simply create healthy
study environment and you will feel in touch of an environment which will suit
to your study atmosphere. Create some friends who are laborious in their studies,
may help you creating healthy study environment. Keep whatever tools are
required to you during study hours. Like dictionaries, encyclopedias, reference
books, subject books, other subject reference books etc.
J Respect “brain fade” complete the
tasks priority basis, forgetting things is normal: - It’s very common that one may forget things. One should not
be bother about forgetting things. Give stress only on the priorities rather
than preparing common contents. Always prepare a check list of your contents
and try to place things first which are more important.
J Create a study routine: - Study hours should be in specific routine is should not be
treated as normal routine. One may prepare a time table for it. This habit is
essential in those who take study as priority basis. Creating study routine
always helps in getting things in time. This attitude always helps in reaching

hours.

advance, so that you plan accordingly. Setting goals in advance always help
students to set things accordingly. This also creates a positive feeling and
motivation. Try motivating yourself to reach the destination, you have planned.
Setting goals in advance is always fruitful in setting time table as required.
J Avoid the frustration enemies: - Most of the people do not look at their enemies who are
affecting the sincere study routine. Try to make a list of those enemies which
may affect your study hours and try to kill these enemies by your skillful act
and devotion. Sometimes friends, sometimes home sickness, sometimes study
environment and sometimes circumstances are responsible for all this. Try
avoiding these enemies.
J Be confident: - Dear students please be calm and confident about your aims,
dreams and goals. Always keep faith on your skill and efficiency, this will
