ATYP homework isn’t like your regular homework. You definitely won’t be able to do it during the car ride to class. Check out our Homework Tips to make this a smooth transition.
THE KEY to success in ATYP is turning in the homework on time. Falling behind adds to student stress and makes the amount of work each week greater. Families - while you do not need to assist your student with their work, you will want to check to see that they have it done and make sure they are bringing it to class, particularly at the beginning of the year when the workload and schedule are new. You may need to help create a homework schedule or organizational plan that works. Many gifted students have never had to develop these skills and may need help in this area. Students - if you find yourself struggling with organization/planning/study strategies, contact Ms. Nan at nan.janecke@wmich.edu to schedule one-on-one help.
