questions about shool?

I have a few questions about school. Please read them and answer nicely. Thanks!!

1.During school I always seem to have a hard time paying attention in class and then when I’m at home I can’t focus on the work I am supposed to do. Why and what can help this?

2.I need some help getting aback on track with schoolwork. We always have weekend homework and I always seem to put it off until Sunday night before we go back to school Monday. What are some good ways to motivate me and keep me motivated until what needs to be done is done?

3.What are some good ways to study for tests and do well on chapter reviews in the back of the book? I always forget when a test is and then I don’t do very well and chapter reviews I have a hard time with because of not being able to concentrate for a long period of time and not being able to focus (question 1) HELP?!

1.The magic word is focus. Focus on what is going on in class. Focus on your homework. Do not get distracted and think of anything else. Professional athletes are told to concentrate on their game and pay full attention to it. You need to do the same with your school work.

2. Do as much of your weekend homework that you can on Friday. Finish the rest on Saturday morning. Do not go anyplace on Saturday until you finish your work, Do not watch TV or play any video games until your homework is finished Tell your parents what you are doing and why. They will be thrilled.

3.Keep a weekly or monthly calendar and write down all your assignments. Underline tests with some color. Do not use red. The best way to prepare for tests is to master the work on the day that you receive it. Ask questions if you do not understand anything. Many schools have afternoon or early morning review classes. A good free only source of help is pathwhelp.com and jiskha,com. Keep a well organized and dated notebook. Ask your teachers for their suggestions.

If you continue to have trouble concentrating after two weeks of the above speak to your parents about having you tested for your concentration levels. They can probably due that through school.

Good luck.
