Time Management Same HW time daily Expect hours At least five days per week Do the “Big Stuff” first Due tomorrow Worth a lot of points Least pleasant No HW? Check calendar or teacher website Read or work ahead Make flashcards

Where is the time going? Interruptions Cell phone Online/IM Video games TV Sleeping Actually longer than 2.5 hours Frustration Unfocused Procrastination/Overload Needs help

Where to Study Maintain a “study area” Quiet, uninterrupted, well-lit Access to resources No IM, cell phone, internet fun Get up for short breaks Dining room table if monitoring needed

Learning Styles - Auditory collaborative study groups listen to audio recordings of books or instruction read aloud talk things out to gain better understanding

Learning Styles - Visual information presented in writing, pictures, or diagrams read handouts create mental pictures take detailed written notes from textbooks and in class

Learning Styles – Tactile/ Kinesthetic hands-on learning settings physically manipulate something to learn about it move about and handle things lab component have an actual object in hands (Learning style study tips quoted from study.com)

Teach Get a study buddy in each of your classes. Practice “teaching” someone what you have learned Plan a lesson using your notes and powerpoint or other program Create a video of what you learned.

Last thoughts… Discuss upcoming family events and dates and mark on student calendar. Use questions developed by student to help review for concepts and tests. Try many different methods until you find what works best for you!
