The 2024-2025 Academic Year is underway!
The Top Six Tips for Superb Students:
6. Get Organized ~ Put all of your books and materials in order in one place. Have them ready to use whenever you go into class.
5. Create a Block Schedule ~ Print one from your dashboard and highlight your classes or fill in the one in the Student Planner. Keep it by your desk! Make a copy for the fridge!
4. Manage the Clock ~ There is only so much time in the day. Divide up your time so that you can complete all of your subjects.
3. Ask for Help ~ You are not on your own. Ask a parent; ask a sibling; ask a teacher in messaging. And don't forget to ask God--pray for yourself and all the students.
2. Follow Your Agenda ~ Read each day's work in each class agenda. If it is assigned today, do it today! If it is assigned tomorrow, do it tomorrow; and so on down the line.
1. Let the Work of this Week be Sufficient for this Week ~ Use the time you have this week to do the best work you can, then STOP WORK, and TURN IN what you have (perfect or not) on Friday. Take the weekend off and come back next week to do it again (even better).
The big idea is do everything, but work within your time limits. Each week, you will get better at completing the week's work. You'll have a chance later on (once you master the schedule) to earn back points you missed on incomplete work.
