Some experts say the difference between good students and poor students isn’t mainly ability. Instead, it’s how students organize themselves to use their abilities. A little organization can produce amazing results!

 

Get Organized:

ü Have a homework agenda or scribbler to keep track of your assignments, and always carry it.

ü Ask the teacher for some outside help when the classroom explanation is not adequate for you.

ü Use scribblers to put you notes in, and keep them organized.

ü Have phone numbers for classmates especially one who will be you “homework buddy”. This is someone in your class who collects hand-outs and assignments for you when you are absent from school. You can borrow your buddy’s notes when you return to school and you do the same for this friend

ü Ask questions when you are unsure of something.

ü Pay attention in class as it is very easy to let your mind wander. Take notes, concentrate on what is being said; it will be easier to absorb the information being presented.

ü Keep your bookshelf, desk, and kitbag neat.

ü Be prepared for each class bringing the materials you need to class (including pencil and paper).
