DD has just turned 8 and is in Year 3. She has homework 3 times a week (Reading, Writing, Maths) as well as a daily spelling list. For those with similar aged children, how are your children organising themselves? Do they tackle their work on a regular basis? Do they have days and times set aside for them to get it done?
DD seems so forgetful and will happily colour at the table, write in her diary, play with her younger sister etc but won't actually prioritise her work at all. We are getting to the point of having to sit and actually do it with her. How independent are your children with their homework?
Lots of her friends seem to have packed lives outside of school - commitments to clubs, sports etc, yet DD doesn't yet have these commitments taking up her time and yet she still doesn't seem to consider her responsibility to school.
Am I expecting too much? I'm happy to accept that and relax a bit with your advice.
