It is really a great task to improve concentration in kids..I have read an article earlier on tips to improve the concentration skills of kids at http://school.familyeducation.com/study-skills/homework/41196.html
Children usually stay focused longer on things that truly interest them, so you will want to pick activities that appeal to your child to improve his concentration.
If you haven't been playing board and card games with your son, start now. Begin with games that are easy to play before moving on to those with more complicated rules. Not only do games require concentration, but they're also fun.
Read to your son. Start asking him questions before you read to focus his attention on a story. Then have him let you know when you read the answer to the question. What you are doing is helping your son become an active listener.
Does your son play any computer games? Have him avoid those that just require mindless responses. Also, cut his TV viewing time. While it may appear that he is concentrating on a program, television does not require children to focus for more than a few seconds on an image.
Other activities that build concentration include: doing puzzles, drawing pictures, making models, learning karate, and helping with family chores. Your child's teacher will have even more suggestions.
Find out from your son's teacher whether his problems with timed assignments are due to not focusing on the work or not having the necessary skills. Since most timed assignments are math problems, your son may need to learn the basic facts better.
Hope it may help you.

I used to be like that. When my mother made me sit down to study, I always make excuses to get up and away from the desk. I wasn't a good a student until middle school when I started to take care of my own school work. Maybe you don't need to be too harsh with your children about studying. They are still young, let them enjoy their childhood a little more. When they grow a little older, they would realize how important education is.

hi rorisricha, kids always can not concentrate on study. so the way of learning to them is so important. the first thing you should do is cultivate your kid's interest on study, like buying some books or vedios they like, learning at the same time. what's more, you should tell them how important studying is. if he studies well, he can afford a big house and a beautiful wife.hahaha..

As you said if u make children to sit for study,they sit also coz of ur fear tht parents will get angry....but they are not interested...and jst they sit but their minds are somewhere else....First you should do counselling...try to talk wth them and try to understand the importance of study in their way only....Interest is necessary for concentration.....Try to make them study in which they are comfortable....while playing u can make them study...means search such solutions for them....Gud luck..Take care..

Sometimes you need to treat them like you would another adult i find with my son if he does not want to study then i will say ok dont study and take the consequences so if he does not do his homework then he will get a detention this will make him go and think that if he does not do his homework he will get the detention

I have no idea! As I have the same problem with my son. Often I resort to getting angry and taking away priviledges from him, like TV, computer time or Wii time. Still, it would take hours to just go through an assignment. I don't remember myself to be this problematic when I was younger. I guess kids today just have too many distractions.
