Never try to work when you are very hungry, if you decide to do your homework right after school, you may get something to eat before getting to work. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don’t wait until very late in the evening, or your work will seem much harder than it really is.
Organize（安排）your time into a few parts If you have more than an hour’s work, give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand don’t break it up so much that you can’t get anything done you should be able to work at least a half at a time without stopping.
Don’t put it off until the last minute. If you put off doing your homework, you will have it on your mind, and you won’t enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until right before a test, you will have too much catching-up to do. A little bit each night, enough to keep up with what is happening each day in school, will take the fear out of tests and keep you on top of it all.
Do your homework at the same time every evening. This will help you make it a habit. It will make it easier to do, and it will make your free time more enjoyable as well.

All children in the United States have to receive an education,but it doesn't mean they must get an education in a school. Now lots of parents wouln’t like to send their children to school. Children who are taught at home are called “homeschoolers”. It is said that there are about 1.5 to 1.9 million homeschoolers in the United States, about 4% of school-age children.
Some parents would like to teach their children at home because they do not believe that schools can teach the correct values（价值观）. Others believe they can provide a better education for their children at home.
Now there are many websites about home education. Many parents teach their children at home and use the Internet to exchange（交流） ideas. It is interesting that homeschoolers often do better in reading and math than those at school.
