Three key school supplies don't come from a store
It's school supply season! But three key things your child needs for school success can't be bought: concentration, organization and motivation. To help your child acquire them, set a regular study time and make sure she has a distraction-free place to work. Teach her to use checklists to keep track of things she needs to do. Most importantly, talk to your child each day about what she's learning.

Study success starts with a daily habit
Establishing one study habit right from the start will help your teen in the year to come. Encourage him to spend a few minutes each evening reviewing his class notes from the day. While he still remembers what the teacher said, he can rewrite anything that is unclear and add any thoughts that will make it easier to study for tests. If he's confused about anything, he can make a note to ask the teacher about it.

Help your teen build research skills
There's more to doing research than Googling. When your teen wants to know more about a topic, she'll need to know how to use all kinds of reference sources, both digital and in print. For a start, make sure she understands the difference between primary sources (information from a person who was there when something happened) and secondary sources (researched and compiled information).

Don't get stranded without a book
You have a long wait for an appointment, or a short car ride turns into a long standstill because of a flat tire. Whether you and your child are stuck for a few minutes or stranded for an hour, make the most of that time by reading. Keep a book or magazine stashed in the car or in a bag you take with you. It will provide a pleasant, productive way for you and your child to pass time during unexpected waits.
