HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL INSCHOOL

PART 1

Some experts say the difference between good students and poor students isn’t mainly ability. Instead, its how students organize themselves to use their abilities. A little organization can produce amazing results!

Get organized:

Have a homework agenda or scribbler to keep track of your assignments, and always carry it.

Ask the teacher for some outside help when the classroom explanation is not adequate for you. 

Use scribblers to put your notes in, and keep the organized.

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.

Ask questions you are unsure of something.
