Some as signments are for practice while others are creative and require reascarch, critical thinking, and the growth of ideas. There are, also, basic as signments which may be pre paratory as background for a future lesson. Parents rarely have control over the actual assignments.

Do not spe cifically correct an arithme tic problem. Do discuss the method for solving the prob lem and suggest reevaluation. You can help a student learn by asking searching ques tions which will help him to think. Practice type assignments require only limited assist ance. The concepts have been taught in the classroom. The child should be encouraced to seek assistance when it is introduced by the teacher. In sucn cases, tne parent can help by following procedures indicated in the student's textbook. This will avoid con fusion of methods. It is also possible that through dis cussion the child will be re minded of the classroom in struction. In any case, help should be aimed at under standing how to solve the problem, rather than a memo rization of steps. The teach er is pleased to give further explanation to an interested student and parent. Creati quire a combination of skills ' which are developed over a : period of time In this in. j of assignment a student needs encouragement and motiva. lion. You should help the child nlan his own am-irnnr.h iThe problem should challenge ine imnking processes, but it should not be so difficult that frustration will result i in discouragement. Superficial Nature Preparatory assiennipnU are aimed at devcloDini? hark. ground and curiosity.
