Key to this is remembering to focus on the need for structure and routine for your child's daily schedule and thereby reinforcing the importance of learning self-control and self-regulation. The following are suggestions for parents: Focus on discrete rewards and consequences for appropriate and inappropriate behavior:- Tangible rewards and treats;- Movie night for a good week at school;- Removal of privileges; and Time-out from reinforcing activities: the child is essentially removed from situations that foster inappropriate behavior.Set a daily routine and stick to it. Bedtime and preparation for school are much easier if there is a structure already in place.Have tangible reminders:- A big clock in the bedroom;- Charts for chores;- Assignment pad to record homework and a specific folder to put work in upon completion; and- Gain the child's attention before speaking to him or her.

Impact of educationIn everything that we do, we seek to generate a positive impact in the lives of children and women in rural communities. It is therefore critically important we measure the results and effects that we have on our beneficiaries. We keep improving our monitoring and evaluation processes every year. In every Learning Squared program, we seek to understand the level of change and impact that we have created, enabling us to allocate resources to programs with the highest impact and define how to improve that impact on a long and short-term basis. We look at quality-of-life metrics such as poverty and school attainment and access to quality and affordable education.By: jazzThursday, Feb 16, 2023CULTURE AND SOCIETY
