There may be many reasons why your son may find studying difficult. He may:
1) have something else on his mind (with friends, school, home, etc.)
2) find the subject really hard and does not know where to start
3) find his studying environment to be uncomfortable
4) feel overwhelmed with the amount of studying he has to do.
5) not want to study due to various reasons
6) etc.


It is important first of all to ask him why he thinks he can't concentrate. Get to the heart of the issue first, and then deal with it appropriately.

He may have to feel there will be some tangible reward or reason to do this, not just because you want to control his mind.

It is important that his studying environment is suitable, comfortable and well lit, with minimal distractions. I find to study in 30 to 45 min. stints with a break (5 to 10 minutes) in between is helpful: it breaks up the time into managable blocks and give me a goal to work towards.

This is against views of the British Educational System, but I find if the student is allowed to listen to some kinds of music he or she enjoys, concentration can be achieved for longer periods, drowning out other outside stimuli. Use ear phones or head phones, and music should be more as a background, not as the focus of the attention from the student.

This is not serious at all, provided u give him some basic knowledge . that is he has to know what really he is studying, it should not be a mug up only which has no activities. Get some story books which interest him, get some colouring books, and before you could really sit with him for studies make him do this, let him read 1page of the story book, 1 page colouring but after u have finished with the story book tell him we will do 1 page studies and then we will colour, at first he will Say that he wants to colour, but u tell him since u have red the book 1st he can do the studies if he still insist then let him colour and then sit with his lessons. remember to have 1 fixed time and only 1 hr for studies not more then this as this makes the kid get bored on studies, once the time has finished, start with the games.All kids like games so after you have finishes with the 1hr have him play for 10 or 20 mts with a puzzle book, this will make him like his studies, and it will help him create interest in studies and playing also at the same time. Believe me it works, i have done the same. You need a lot of story books and letter games for him, this will increase his knowledge on words also and it will make him remember his lesson faster too.

Your son is 6 or 7, right? He needs some active help in his study techniques. 1. Set up a quiet area for him to do his homework--no TV, games, music,phone. 2. Start him out doing one subject. When he gets done or when he starts to look around, be there to ask him questions about his homework. Get him to do a quick review. Then go to the next subject immediately. Keep him studying for about 20 minutes, then declare a break. Get him away from the study area for a snack, bathroom break, whatever he needs to do. After about 10 minutes, start study again. Repeat the process until homework is done. You might want to ask his teacher for help if there is difficulty. Kids hate to study when they are confused by the subject.

First of all you have to know that your son is not having interst in studies,So the first step should be how to create it.Never force or make him feel that he should learn.Casually you do learn it and with beautiful colour pencils--you draw beautiful birds--fruits--cars etc.Then he will come to you to see it and will enjoy.let it go like this day aftaer day and let him ask for the pencils to draw.You do different things.Like singing the Rhymes and playing with the educational items.I am sure he will culture it within a month and will accompany you.Dont show your frustrations to him.Just do these yourself and he will surely join you.I think he is an intelligent boy and so cant concentrate on one thing.Dont worry--give him some time.The scientist Einstein--never learn while he was at school.So have patience.

as others are saying, dont force him and dont scold him. maybe u can try to sit with him and do some puzzles that take 10-15 min. that way he will learn to concentrate. i am not saying that completely ignore this because there are children who look very normal but have Attention Deficit Disorder, which any one can have but then parents usually think-"My child cant hav it". But u have to be patient only and c if he concntrats on other things. If he does then u just have to be very patient when it comes to studies and try and make things more intersting for him.

You need not to worry. It happens to the child initially and there after he/she becomes serious in study. Pl don't force for study otherwise there are the chances of hating the education. Let him grow with nature and only thing is -
-start practising study yourself to show your son, which creates the interest as generally child follows their parents first. so, he will follow you if he see/observe you while you are reading.
Best luck !

He's very young, therefore he will not be able to concentrate. My advice is to study with him. Perhaps, have him read what ever he is learning out loud. Then, he will be more likely to ask questions when he doesn't understand. You will then be able to explain and he will be more interested in what he is learning.

read with him,help him take notes,try to find something interesting in what he's studying. after that have him answer questions about it (u using the book and him using the notes)
then next time just have him take notes by himself and answer ur questions after.

he is in 1standard. he is not in 10th or +2 for u to bother this much. try to teach his subjects when he is normal and palying.talk to him a lot. that will make him to ask u more questions?
u wanna make him write his lessons. ask him to draw pictures first,then ask him to write letters. u know artist are good at writing. dont try to blackmail him. and ofcourse little children should learn only by playing.
