I constantly need to ask DS( age 9.5, grade -4) to read this, that. Now this, do that and orally ask if he has remembered things, make sample papers etc. and at time make sample papers and it kind of leads to lots of unhappiness as he behaves well during exams time or 1 before exams but in case I want to make this normal routines, he doesn't like it. He thinks doing homework, extra-curricular are fine. revising something regularly which is being done in school daily is not part of his routine as of now but going forward I want it to be a habit so that it is easier in higher grades. He is also learning Piano( grade-2 level), Guitar and attends 3 days/week Tennis and 2 days/week Basketball. I make it a routine to practice piano daily(30 mins daily) but guitar is not more than 2-3 times/week (10-15mins). He also attends once a week drawing with no homework. He loves reading so lots of time goes in reading as well so with this doesn't leave much time for studies but then asking 30 mins daily is too much ? I am not able to motivate him for studies as I loose my patience and most of the time I started scolding him when he waste time. As such he is good with studies , I am just worried about higher classes as I don't want him to drop these classes but manage time efficiently.
