Focus Issues
by Jenna Wood

My son and I have recently started home-schooling this year. Over the past few months I have noticed him have increasing trouble focusing. He spent his K-3 grades in public school, and frequently wants to take breaks at their normally scheduled time.
When we stop for a break, there are no children to occupy him, and he is frequently distracted by the television and games. When we are 'in session' we have a dedicated work area. Please give me some tips to help maintain some structure! Thanks!
