![]() We believe that everyone should be involved in helping the children in our neighbourhoods with their homework so that they are successful in school. So they get frustrated, teachers get frustrated, eventually many of these kids drop out of school and everyone blames the system. These are kids who usually have trouble reading and writing. In our work in the Homework Clubs, we realized that there are lots of kids out there who hate homework. The information in this booklet is based on our experience as Frontier College: Youth Service Canada participants. Through this initiative, we learn skills which will help us in our life journeys. Youth Service Canada is a program of the federal government which recruits young people to do something useful in their communities. Frontier College has been working for almost 100 years to help Canadians with their reading and writing skills. We are members of the Frontier College: Youth Service Canada project who have organized and run 12 homework clubs in Metro Toronto Housing Authority (MTHA) buildings. It is written for people who want to start a Homework Club. It was written for anyone who wants to help the children in their community to do better in school. Thank you for picking up this little booklet.
