LOS ANGELES, March 28 (UPI) -- Pop music star Britney Spears is taking math classes so she can help her sons with their homework as they get older and the subject becomes more difficult.

The 33-year-old recording artist is the mother of 9-year-old Sean Preston and 8-year-old Jayden James. Their father is Spears' ex-husband Kevin Federline.

"They go to a really hard school, and this week we had three hours of homework [a night]," Spears told People magazine. "Some of it is hard for me. Next year when [Preston's] in fifth grade, he's going to be doing pre-algebra, and I'm taking classes so I know how to do it!"

Spears went on to say homework is a priority in her family.

"We have a reward system that helps motivate them," she explained. "If they get so many As, they get one toy a month."
