There is an international club of ordinary people who all have kids who are geniuses.
They do not drink, or smoke, or eat junk food. They eat very healthy, and many are vegitarian. They teach their kids from BEFORE they are born - signing them songs and reading to them. They believe that just being healthy, and properly educating your own kids is the way to make your kids smarter - and, you cant argue with the results - the kids are the smartest group on the planet.
You can help by making the environment the best you do, with no drinking smoking or junk food around the kids. ( you will get smarter as well ). Dont even drink tea or coffee!
Get the kids to bed early. Get the kids to do exercises with you - say with a video tape with music. There are chemicals and vitamins that you can get that increase memory and awareness - these are called SMART drugs, and there are now SMART bars around the world where adults can go, where the drinks are combinations of these chemicals, rather than alcohol.
Search the web for SMART DRUGS, and see if there are any suppliers in your area.
Spending time with your child reading, writing, and learning with books from the library is extremely helpful. Spending time helping with homework is very important to instill good learning habits.
There is no miracle cure. It will take time, but if YOU change for the better, your son will change for the better as well.
There are issues of ADD ( Attention Deficit Disosorder) and drugs that are prescribed for kids ( yuk ) and all sorts of behavioural and physical problems that no one can guess, but no matter what the root problems are, healthier foods, ordinary vitamins ( like one-a-day kids chewables ), exercise, and a lot of time together reading and learning, and lots ( LOTS ) of proper sleep, will go a long way in improving the situation. You could also look into various teaching resources on the web for HOME SCHOOLING, and help in pinpointing WHY your son may not be doing as well as he should.
The web is a powerful tool - I hope that you will find the solution -
good luck

He is only 6 for goodness sakes. Has the school pinpointed what the deal might be? Is it a problem of not being challenged? Work too hard for him? Can't sit still at all? If this is a huge issue I would talk to your doctor. It may be that he is just not use to being made to sit. Children that go from a very relaxed home and are made to sit at school for long hours often do poorly. Maybe his attention span is not very long. You need to work with his teacher top figure out what is the best route to go with his education.

First, take him to a doctor to determine if there is anything physically wrong and if there is, get him treated. Then, contact his teacher to request that he be tested for a learning disability and, if he has a disability, ask if he can be enrolled in a class where he can be taught at his learning level.
If there are no physical problems or learning disabilities, it may be that he is just more interested in playing than in studying. At six, he is still quite young. You may want to get some simple books at the library and read to him - something interesting that hopefully will inspire him to want to learn to read better. Being able to read will help him focus on his studies. Ask him questions as soon as you have read a short story to give him practice in recalling what he has heard.
I wish you the best of success and compliment you on your concern for your son.

I would suggest that you play memory games with him and work on improving his attention span. You can also help him to work puzzles which require focus and help to increase his attention span. I would start out with simple puzzles with only a few pieces and then slowly increase the number of pieces. However, you need to be careful to not push him too much or he might start to rebel... just take it slow and hopefully over time... maybe in a year or so... he will have increased his focus and attention span. Also, these activities are great for family fun and quality time together. The following links have some fun memory games that he might enjoy... some are computer games and others are for family interaction.

This goes against conventional wisdom but studies have shown that most kids actually do better when their formal education is delayed. Specifically, kids who's formal education is put off until age 7 or 8 are reading about one grade level above his or her same age peers one year after formal education begins.
You may want to put off his formal education for another year or so. If you do, make sure that he is exposed to number and alphabet games and music. Read to him as much as possible. Encourage him to talk and engage him in activities that stimulate his senses and which encourage him to increase his attention span.

What does he like to do? Does he like sing-along-movies? If so, tell him to make up a tune to go with his study. Or, tell him to think of it as a game. He has to get a certain amount of points to pass school so he can get summer break (or however he gets time off) by doing homework and doing it well. I'm sure you can think of some more things like that to help him. It works for me and I'm still in High school!

find something he likes to do like singing my daughter loves to sing and she learns math and spelling to songs this is fun and it is something they like to do and that is how they keep it in their head and if you cant find the song have them make one up if you have a tape recorder tape them once he find the song and then let him listen to it over and over again he will sing and learn it that way or make it into a game. In school he can hear the songs in his head and you can even tell the teacher what you have done and just the fact that he is doing better in school the teacher will love it GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

How can you help him with his studies when you can't even write properly, eh? Go back to school and your son will help you with YOUR studies...
