Some
experts say the same 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
teacher for some outside help when the classroom explanations is not adequate
for you.
ü Use
scribblers to put your notes in, and keep them organized
ü Have
phone numbers for classmates especially of one who will be your “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 can 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).http://www.getreadyforcollege.org/gPg.cfm?pageID=1173
