Importance of school tasks.

After a long day of work, parents are still faced with another commitment: to support children in homework. And the fatigue that arises at this moment makes many wonder why, after all, the school sends exercises and work to do at home and if it really worth so much effort.

One of the important points of the home lesson is, exactly, the fact of providing this moment of the student with the parents. "One of the main functions of the lesson is to contribute to the integration and interaction between the student and the family, through which parents know what is happening in the classroom, what is the content that is being taught and, the degree of difficulty or ease that the child is having with the subject.

School work awakens responsibility, a sense of organization, autonomy and critical thinking.

Mainly in adolescence, it is very common for students to question their tasks and leave them aside, often losing note for not delivering them within the period established by the teacher. But why is so many tasks necessary?

Homework is an important part of the school learning process, since the student practices individually and observes their skills, working memory, reasoning and even autonomy in the search for solutions.

In addition, doing homework every day awakens in students the practice of routine and concentration.

It is important to note that the supervision of the parents, responsible or even private teacher is very valid, since at that age the adolescents have not yet awakened the necessary maturity to understand this process. But be careful! The task is individual and non-transferable! That is, it is not worth doing homework for your child or you will miss an optimal opportunity to self-assess.

There are also aspects related to learning that are worked by the task.

• Help to retain the content presented
• Increase understanding of issues
• Improves critical thinking
• Awakens autonomy and responsibility
• Collaborate to have an organization dedicated to the study
• Causes of independence to study without being in the classroom.

A specific task can have three different functions:

1.Continue with the subject taught in class

Source Did your child really understand the explanation given in the class? The best way to have this certainty is to try to solve, alone and at home, an exercise similar to what you did in class.

2.Expand the concepts presented

Source Homework can go beyond what the teacher said in the short space of time he has in the classroom. After a class on insects, for example, the task may be to discover the process of making silk (tissue originated from the silkworm). In this type of lesson, the challenge is for the students to complete the information given in the class, either by researching, trying to solve a more complex question, interpreting and giving their opinion on the subject.

3.Prepare for future content

Source The next chapter of the school geography material will talk about urbanization and the teacher asks as a lesson from home that your child will be interviewing neighbors and entrepreneurs in the region to ask what are the main neighborhood problems. Will it be easier for your child to understand the consequences of life in cities in this way?

For these benefits to take effect, it is necessary to ensure quality homework and take care so that homework does not become a problem between parents and children, making class time a real nightmare.
