Having a good day should begin with the day before! Make sure that your children have enough sleep and go to bed at appropriate times. Online days are not holidays and you should keep to the same routine as a normal school day as you possibly can.

Where possible have a dedicated place where the student will work online and other offline schoolwork. Ideally this should be a table in a quiet corner of a room. A dedicated room may seem like a good idea but if there is no other adult in the room then a student can easily be distracted and even play video games instead of paying attention to the lesson. Of course, if there are younger children around you may have no choice. In this case visit the room at random times and try and have the screen face the door. 

You can’t be prepared for every little interruption that may happen, but there are so many things that you can plan for. Have all the supplies your student will need ready such as pens, pencils and notebooks. Make sure your internet can handle enough people online at the same time. Have your student be involved in the process of preparation and room design.

Make sure all the work is completed and that there is a valid reason for any work not completed. Have the student contact the teacher so that they are able to understand any problems they may have.

Look for the barriers to success. Is it motivation, is it the structure of the day (maybe i is too rigid, maybe not rigid enough), is it a lack of understanding, are there too many distractions, is it too cold or too warm in the room? If you are able to identify and resolve in the home then do so - if you need assistance from the school contact us — we are here to help.

Help them understand the relevance of their work. If they are doing a maths problem you could say, “..that is really useful -I had to use that same formula or principal to solve a problem in my work this week’，You can then explain how you arrived at your solution and have your student be part of the experience of how satisfying solving a problem really can be.

Give positive feedback. Teachers very quickly learn that criticising a student's work does not lead to an improved outlook or motivates to do better. Studies have shown that children miss the reassurance and reinforcement from teachers when they work at home.

制定每日计划。老师在安排在线课堂的时间时，会确保学生不会整天盯着屏幕。通常情况下，计划表中间的空白时间段是课间休息时间或是学生从一个班级转移到另一个班级的时间。然而，在家里，这些空白的时间段就很容易失控。家长们检查一天的时间表，并根据孩子的年龄创建一个例行程序，包括个人阅读、父母阅读、玩乐高、做数学作业，甚至做分配的家务——比如，在吃完零食后让孩子们把他们的盘子和杯子送到厨房，让他们洗干净收起来，擦桌子，收拾房间。如此劳逸结合起来，就自然而然的形成了规律并会自觉的去遵守。

在条件允许的情况下，最好是给学生提供一个单独的空间进行线上课程，最理想的情况是在房间的角落处安置一张桌子。一个单独的学习空间是一个好主意，但如果房间里没有其他的成年人在旁边，那么学生很容易分心，可能不是专心上课而是玩游戏。当然，如果家中有其他年幼的孩子，或许提供单独的空间给需要学习的孩子就有些困难了。在这种情况下，建议家长可以随机的探访房间并让学生屏幕面向门。

做好准备。家长可能无法为的每一个突发的中断提前做好准备，但是我们可以计划很多其他事情，比如，提前为学生准备好学习可能需要的所有用品，例如钢笔、铅笔和笔记本，最重要的是确保家中的互联网能够时刻保持畅通，或者家长可以让学生积极的参与对于学习间的设计与摆布。

请家长尽量不要过多干预学生的学习和理解，更不要为他们完成作业，而是帮助孩子理解认真做作业是在为以后的成功打地基。友情提醒：我们都是想要看到孩子的成长进度，而不是家长的噢！

确保所有工作都已完成，并且任何未完成的工作都有正当理由。让学生联系老师，以便他们能够理解他们可能遇到的任何问题。

寻找成功的障碍。是动力吗？是一天的结构吗？（也许是太死板，也许不够固定），是缺乏了理解？还是有太多的干扰因素，是房间里太冷还是太热？如果您能够在家中发现并解决这些问题，那是最好不过的啦！但如果您需要学校的帮助，请联系我们—我们将随时为您提供帮助。

帮助学生理解课程的相关性。如果他们在做一道数学题，你可以说，“……这真的很有用—我不得不使用相同的公式或原理来解决本周工作中的一个问题"。然后，家长可以解释您是如何得出解决方案的，并让学生参与到解决问题的过程中。

给予积极的反馈。老师们了解到，批评学生的工作并不会带来改善的前景或激励他们做得更好。研究表明，孩子们在进行远程学习时很容易错过老师的安慰和鼓励。
