Recite

At the end of each section, look up from the text and in your own words recite an answer to your questions for that section. Then write down your answer. Be sure to provide examples that support it.

Now repeat the Questions, Read and Recite steps for each section of the chapter. First ask a question for the next section. Then read to find the answer. Finally, recite the answer in your own words and jot it down. The written questions and answers can help you study in the future.

Review

After completing the chapter, review your notes. Identify the main points by looking for the most important idea in each section. Recite, or write, a brief summary of the assignment.

Review your study notes every week to help you remember the information. When it’s time to prepare for your tests, you’ll find you’ve created an invaluable study guide.

5 Tips for Staying Motivated

Tips 3-5

3. Set Attainable Goals

If you’re having trouble writing a 25-page paper for class because it seems like such a big job, don’t focus on that final number. Break the paper down and consider each section of your paper individually. You can handle any project in small chunks.

4. Find a Social Support Network

Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed. Mentors can be teachers or family friends who can give you guidance and help you develop new skills. Counselors can help you with planning your courses and starting to explore you by listening and sharing ideas.

5. Acknowledge Your Accomplishments

Give yourself a quick reward when you complete an assignment or task. Take a walk, send an email, get a snack. Then move on to the next project.

Keep Things in Perspective

Know how much weight each assignment or test carrier, and use your time accordingly. Don’t waste time, but be wise and smart. Doing the most important things first is being wise and smart.

Get More Involved

Keep your mind from wandering by taking notes, underlining sections, discussing topics with others or relating your homework to something you’re studying in another class. Learn actively and not passively. Be anxiously engaged in your studies and you will have a great experience. Demonstrate a good attitude toward home assignments, and you will begin to love doing it.

Organize the Information

People process information in different ways. Some people like to draw pictures or charts to digest information, others prefer to read out loud or make detailed outlines. Try to find the methods that work best for you. ask your teacher for recommendations if you’re having trouble.

"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing." Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.”

-Theodore Roosevelt

I agree with this statement because in life at any circumstance, the best thing to always do is to always choose the right, no matter what. Choosing the right will benefit you because you will have a happier, peaceful, and easier life. You won’t have to worry about whether or not you will get in trouble for doing something, which is why it is important to choose the right. An example would be if you are invited to a party on a weekend but you know you have too much work, you will need to make a decision about either going to the party or staying home and doing your work. The best decision to make should be to stay home and do your work.  If you slack off, you won’t finish your work, but if you focus and finish it on time, you will have more liberty to have free time.
