Homework Checklist

A Homework Checklist is a useful tool to implement in order to keep track of homework. It is a great way to organize tasks, events, any deadlines, and even any additional materials that may need to be brought into a lesson. By using the Homework Checklist for students, they become more responsible and will get used to the routine, understanding the importance of being punctual and being organized.

Such checklists can be used by students, parents, and even teachers to steer responsibility away from the adults and teach students to work more independently.

A typical daily Homework Checklist will contain information on the subjects of the day, details about the tasks set by teachers (for each subject) as well as the date that the homework was set and the deadline date for completing the homework task. You can also leave a small box for students to tick off any completed tasks, making it easier to visualize the progress made in completing homework.

As most homework tasks are handed out on a daily basis, instead of printing pages for every single day which is timely and more expensive in the long run - we would suggest printing one template and laminating it. This way, a student can reuse the same checklist by using a non-permanent board marker and rubbing off information per day.

How Can a Homework Checklist Help?

Homework can be extremely tough for some students especially when there is lots of it. This is particularly true for students that may not be used to receiving such a workload for one reason or another.

Keeping on track and trying to remember what needs to be done and when it needs to be done by can be very challenging, particularly for young learners. It also seems unfair to put that responsibility on teachers and parents - after all, the child will at some point have to hold responsibility for their work and parents have a ton of other responsibilities.

This is why a Homework Checklist can really help. It helps to minimize stress in students as it makes them feel confident that they know what they need to do along with the deadlines for these tasks. This can really help to teach students to prioritize workload and teach them the importance of completing a sequential process in order to get to an end result.

It also helps students form a clear pathway and enhances their problem-solving skills. They have a problem (a homework task that needs completing) and they need to find a solution (the best way to complete the homework) within a specific amount of time (the deadline date), whilst also juggling other schoolwork, responsibilities, and commitments. This combination has proven to be effective in improving cognitive function in children and developing problem-solving among young learners. It helps students become independent learners which is a great skill to have for the future.
