“ When I was teaching basketball, I urgent my players to try their hardest to improve on that every day, to make that practice a masterpiece.

This rule is even more important in life than basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day.”

Reflection:

 In life you should always do whatever you can to improve. If you know you not good at something then try to improve each day until you get better at it. To be able to accomplish something you need to be able how to do it if not you need to do everything that is possible to improve. try to improve to make others and yourself proud.

                           Tips 3-4

Tip 3: research

Literary critics have written vast numbers of analytical and critical pieces on countless books. If you’re having trouble understanding a particular text, do some research and see what knowledgeable sources have to say about it. In addition to increasing your comprehension you’ll also be showing initiative, something teachers always like to see. Always use legitimate and scholarly sources, not condensed study guides.

Tip 4: use a dictionary

Make sure you have access to a dictionary when you’re reading. You can often figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar word by using the dictionary.

                   Reading

Reading and writing go hand in hand. The better you understand a text, the more likely you are to successfully communicate your thoughts about it in writing. So it’s important to develop strong skills in both areas. With that in mind, here’s how to improve your reading comprehension.

                   Tips 1-2

Tip 1: annotate

Be an active reader. Instead of passively reading a text, take notes about important story elements, key factual information and significant ideas in the text.

Tip 2: note the author’s writing style

Every author writes with a purpose, using deliberate methods to successfully relate specific information to the audience. When you’re reading look for patterns in the author’s writing. For example, you may notice a repetition of key words, phrases or symbols- or the use of a distinct type of sentence structure. Authors employ these writing strategies to help readers comprehend a central argument or them, so be sure to explore how these techniques create meaning.

         Choose the right!!!!

Don’t whine

Don’t complain

Don’t make excuses

Reflection:

In life you should never whine, complain or make excuses. When you whine you just get into problems that you don’t want. When you complain it can lead to getting in fights. If you start making excuses for anything then other people will see that you make up to many stuff that they won’t end up believing you anymore.

 

5 tips for staying motivated

 5 tips for staying motivated

To succeed in high school and college, you have to do best at all times. But sometimes it’s hard to stay motivate.

1.                       Focus on high-impact activities

The key to success in school is staying focused on your course work. Make a list to get an overall picture of your own workload before you start to tackle any of it. Then, make a plan. Although it’s tempting to do the simplest assignments first, those that take more time and effort to accomplish are probably the ones that you’ll learn the most from.

To determine what your priorities are, rank your assignments in the order of their importance. Then rearrange your time and devote more energy toward those that have the greatest impact on your course work and grades. For example, even though all homework assignments are important, studying for a midterm exam takes priority over writing a paragraph for English class. As you complete each task, think of it as another step on your way to college success.

2.                       Create new challenges

Changing your approach can help you stay interested in what you’re doing. If you’ve been given an assignment similar to one you’ve done in the past, think about it in a different way. If you wrote an essay for a creative writing assignment last year

If you have a study period or a long bus ride, use the time to review notes, prepare for an upcoming class or start your homework. Flash cards are a great learning tool. They are easy to make, easy to handle, and are a marvelous tool. You can even have separate ringed stacks for each subject. WHATEVER YOU WANT TO REMEMBER PUT IN YOUR CARD.

Study with a friend

Get together with friends and classmates to quiz each other, compare notes and predict test questions. Consider joining a study group.

Communicate

If you have concerns about the amount or type of homework you have, you may want to talk to your family, teacher or a counselor. They can help you understand how much time you need to allot for homework and have to manage your tasks.

TAKING CONTROL OF HOMEWORK OR        DOES IT TAKE CONTROL OF YOU

                            PART 1

Although very few students love homework, it does serve a purpose. Homework helps you:

. Reinforce what you’ve learned during the day.

. Build study habits that are essential in college.

. Prepare for your classes.

. Get a sense of progress.

Here are some tips to help you deal with homework more efficiently and effectively.

Set the mood

Create a good study area with everything you need (for example, a calculation). If you don’t have a quiet place at home, try your school or local library,

Know where to begin

Make a list of everything you need to do, and note all deadlines. Do the more difficult assignments first, so you don’t have to face them at the end.

Study at the same time everyday

Even if you don’t have homework every night, use the time to review notes. If sitting down to work is part of your normal routine, you’ll approach it with less dread. Also, you’ll become a pro at using time productively.

For review

Once you’ve done all of the above, you’ll find you’ve created your own personalization study guide. Cover the main section of the page and use the key words and questions in the left margin as a quiz.

Stick to it

Review your notes the day you take them and all your notes once a week. That way, you won’t need to study as much when it’s test time. You’ve been doing the work all along. Try out the Cornell system, but if it doesn’t work for you, experiment with other methods. Ask your classmates how they take notes or ask a teacher for advice. Taking good notes requires practice, like any other skill, and the more you work at it now, the more prepared you’ll be to take in college.

                              Part 4 of 4

Emphasis on the written word

Most of the communication, as well as the course work, in distance-learning classes is written. That’s a plus, because the focus on the written word gives you the opportunity to develop as a writer-and strong writing skills are essential to academic success. however, if writing is a serious weakness for you, virtual learning may not be the best education option until you improve your skills. Yes, most of distance education is the written word: therefore, you need to be a good reader, love to read, and love writing also. Most of year assignments will be written and submitted to the instructor in the written format. Your penmanship needs to be excellent, spelling great, sentence structure above average, vocabulary extraordinary. You need to have online access with reliable equipment. If your internet communication at home isn’t working, you can’t do online education from home you will need to go to someplace where you do have access to the internet.

Decide whether it’s right for you

Distance education isn’t for everyone, but it just might be for you. You really should seek it out and give it a try. You never know until you try. You might even fall in love with distance education. While distance education may be the perfect alternative for some student, it’s not the right choice for everyone.

Positive aspects of distance education

. Independence and time management: taking courses online lets you hone your ability to work on your own. You also gain experience in managing your time efficiently.
