✏️ How to Stay on Task and Manage Your Time ⏰
With the end of the first quarter coming soon, here are some tips for being the best student you can be!
Use your planner- Most students have an agenda/planner, but they don’t write anything in it. On Monday, write down all of the week’s assignments. Most teachers have them posted in the classroom or online.
Don’t wait until the last minute- Use an assignment notebook, fit homework into a routine, have a plan so schoolwork doesn’t suffer during a theater production or sport season.
Select a consistent place to study- Some people need total quiet while others can study well with music in the background (try classical music). The key is to find a comfortable place and study there regularly, such as the kitchen table, a desk, a favorite chair, bed, etc. Make sure it has adequate lighting and keep all your study supplies in reach.
Stay organized throughout the year– Most students have many binders and folders, but they do not use them. Many stuff every single paper from school into one binder. Half of their papers become misplaced or lost. Do not use the “shove” method when papers are returned, i.e. shove everything in one binder. Place them in the correct folder. If you are using a three-ring binder to keep papers organized, take the time to open the metal prongs and place them securely in it. If someone helps you organize your papers, take the time to continue putting everything in its place.
