Break up hard subjects into bite sized chunks
Many kids have at least one subject that they dislike. My son dreads math and we have had some big struggles with just getting through it every day. Recently I realized that part of the problem was that just looking at the two pages of the lesson, filled with math problems, was overwhelming to him. I found that if we broke up the lesson into small portions, just 4 problems at a time, he had a much better attitude about it and our days have gone MUCH smoother!
