In our last blog we discussed having a desk in a distraction free zone to enable your student or yourself to be able to study freely and effectively. Today I want to share six tips to help make that study spot the perfect study spot for anyone. 1. Choose a place where there is privacy and feels comfortable. Make sure the room has all of the essentials they’ll need to get work done like paper, pencils, books, art supplies and other study necessities. A drawer in the desk and or a bookshelf is an ideal place to keep these tools.
2. Make sure the location is quiet. When the windows are close, is the outside noises eliminated? Can they hear a TV from another room?
3. One of the most important features of a study area is good lighting. During daylight hours, natural light can stimulate learning but if the room is lacking natural sunlight or is dimly lit, make sure to add extra lighting.
4. Set a regular time for homework. It’s also a good idea check in occasionally to offer help and ensure students are staying on task.
5. Within the study space, provide a spacious and comfortable work surface, whether at a desk or table, where kids can set out their homework and other study materials. If space permits, a cozy armchair is a great addition to the room for reading time.
6. The study space should be free of video games, TV, computer games, and other online activities that can hinder the completion of work. One of the best ways to prevent overusing the computer is to keep it in a central area within the home.
