It’s back to school time, and for lots of us that means it’s time to get kids excited about homework! Okay, if not excited then at least…organized. And if that’s your goal, I’ve got just the thing for you. This quick printable homework chart is the perfect tool to help kids keep track of all of their schoolwork and whether or not it’s been done. It’s customizable, so you can add different classes or subjects, and even has plenty of space for extracurriculars. If you need a little boost to get the school year started, print out a few of these and help your kiddo get to work!
Supplies:
- printer and printer paper or card stock
- printable homework chart
- pen
Instructions:
Step 1: Download and print the homework chart on card stock or plain paper.
Step 2: Help your child fill out the chart. Begin with the week’s dates at the top, and fill in all school subjects along the left hand side. As the week progresses, have your child write each assignment in the corresponding box. Once the assignment has been done, there’s a check box to mark off so they know it’s completed at a glance. If there’s no homework in a certain subject, write “None.”
Step 3: Fill in any extra boxes as you see fit—those are a great place for extracurriculars like music, sports, and so on.
Step 4: If you child has required reading, fill in that column with minutes or materials read.
Step 5: Enjoy the organization and have a great school year!
