it’s meredith here and i decided to move to another blog.
i wanted to start over fresh since it’s a couple weeks until school is out and i’m going into highschool soon so that’s why i wanted to start out fresh!
i will be using this blog as a backup.
the new studyblr is: @bujowithmere
it’s important to be able to track your progress toward your goals! here are a few ideas for goals that can be quantified:
- wake up at 6
- go to bed at 9
- eat a vegetable with every meal
- maintain a duolingo streak
- clean once a week
- take medication/vitamins every day
- read a book a month
- limit time spent on social media to 2 hours daily
- save 10% of every paycheck
- work out every weekend
- get an a in a class
- wash face morning and night
- visit a museum monthly
- complete a painting every week
- write 500 words a day
- use journal daily
- drink a cup of water during each class
these are just a few ideas, and you can always adjust the time frame :-)! go forth and achieve!
these are great!
so you’ve been sick. you’ve missed coursework, and now you’re trying not to have a mental breakdown. maybe i can help.
so how can you find out what you’ve missed?
utilize technology
the internet is a great way to find out what classwork you have missed. message your friends that you share classes with. ask them what lessons you missed.
things to ask for:
- page numbers
- problem numbers
- notes missed
- images of any missed work you can do from home (this includes any worksheets based on things you’ve previously learned, images of problems from a textbook/workbook + examples if you do not have your own book, notes to copy)
you can also message teachers through online grading programs (such as livegrades or engrade if your school uses either of those) or through email. explain how long you will be out of class and ask if there is any work that you could be working on at home.Ex: Dear Mrs. Adams,
I have contracted the flu and therefor cannot attend class for the next week. Is there any work that I have/will missed in class that I could be working on from home?Thank you in advance,Emily L.
manage your time
as lovely as the thought of just staying home and watching Netflix is, it isn’t going to help you finish your work. make a list of all of the assignments you have to do (can be done on paper, mentally, or through an app such as ‘WeDo’.) to help organize your ideas and ensure that nothing is forgotten.
prioritize
think of your teachers expectations. who will expect their work to be turned in within the next day? who is more lenient and will give you all the time you need to complete and turn in your work? use this work to your advantage and prioritize from there. instead of cramming all of your work into one night, do the assignments for the more demanding first, so they can be out of the way and turned in. then you can complete the assignments from your more lenient teachers throughout the next few days.
don’t be afraid to take breaks
believe it or not, breaks are not bad. take a few minutes, drink some water, listen to music, get a snack, and just relax. clear your brain for a moment or two, come back to your studies, focus, divide, and conquer. (i’ve seen many that recommend the pomodoro technique, which helps divide tasks into a series of work, followed by breaks for review.
good luck, friends! i believe in you!
