Providing Homework Support |
2.00 |
The National Standard Objectives of Learning (SOL) have raised questions about the role of school-age programs in providing homework help and support. Research indicates there are many different ways to provide effective homework support in school-age programs. Some are more structured than others. When planning a homework support program, it is important for school-age programs to develop a homework philosophy that is consistent with the program’s overall philosophy and reflects current research on best practices for providing homework help. The homework philosophy should also reflect the needs of parents and children in the program and strike a balance between homework needs and other experiences that help children grow and learn out-of-school. When staff know how to design homework environments, identify appropriate homework materials, and use effective strategies to guide children’s efforts, homework support can be an effective component of ongoing programs. |

Most, if not all, providers have an interest in helping those around them. We found six providers that chose to tell their stories as they relate to Chronic Depression. All of the stories are different but they are all being told for the same reason. These providers are willing to do what many of us will never do. They are sharing their experiences so that they will help those around them. Mental Health First-Aid Instructor, Melodie Kolmetz and Dual Certified Family Practice Physician / Family Therapist, Alan Lorenz discuss the growth that our profession has seen.
