Hi Well! First thing here is do positive and help in correcting his behaviour is that he is interested in art and craft. Being interested in art and craft or drawing means that he has the patience all these skills require. So if your child can sit and concentrate to do all these things means that he has the patience and the concentration which by the way kids do not have and needs to be developed in most cases. I think you can take the help of this interest. Let him continue what he is interested in and you can probably be a part of it. Like you can tell him that let us finish doing homework fast or reading then both of us will try making a bird out of origami or a santa claus of clay. So when he would see you being a part of something that interests him, he will do what you will say. Do not thrust studies on him. Do it playfully so that he doesn't feel pressurised or burdened. Moreso because he is showing behavioral changes. Once all this settles down, there will be no need to invest or device ways to make him study. He himself will do it. And be patient with him. He is a growing child and kids go through various phases and mood swings as we adults do. Just that we know over the years how to manage our emotions and do our work and they are still in their learning stage.
