CENTER
ROUTINE
At the Kumon Center…
The Kumon Center in Hopkinton is open on
Wednesdays and Fridays from 3:00 pm to 6:30 pm.
The Kumon Center in Westboro is open on Tuesdays
and Thursdays from 3:00 pm to 6:30 pm.
The
students stay at the center during their designated time
slots for approximately 15-30 minutes. While they are at the
center, the routine is as follows:
|
 |
Handing in Kumon Homework
Students come in and submit their completed the worksheets
completed at home since his or her last visit to the Center so the
results can be recorded. |
|
 |
Collecting the Kumon Folder
Kumon folders are filled in advance with the
worksheets to be completed that afternoon by the student at the
Center. The student child takes the folder to a desk to begin the
day's assignment. |
|
|
Completing Assigned Worksheets
Kumon does not replicate a classroom model, so
students come and go as they complete their assignments on their own
and at their own pace. |
|
 |
Grading and Feedback
Worksheets are graded immediately after
the student completes them. With the work fresh in mind, the child
meets with the instructor or assistant to review corrections and
discuss his or her progress. The process of feedback and
goal-setting between instructor and student is vital to meeting the
unique needs of the student.
The student then receive suitable homework to
be completed by his or her next visit to the Center. |
At Home…
Students do Kumon work every day. On non-center days, they
do a set of work at home each day. It is important to get into a good
daily routine so that studying becomes a part of the day. Completed
homework needs to be checked and summarized by the parents. This work is
just as impportant as what takes place at the Cetner.
