Study Skills
-Keep up with the work. The homework assignments are meant to help you practice and reinforce what you learned in class. By doing the homework when it is assigned, you will find yourself in a strong position to excel on quizzes and tests.
-Use a planner or something that helps to keep you organized, each person has their own needs in this category. It may even be an electronic device, or simply post-its! Just keep organized.
-Organize your time for reviewing the material. It is very difficult to prepare for a social studies test just by going over all the material the night before the test. Make sure to review notes and homework assignments periodically.
-Know your study preferences. Some of us prepare better for a test by working alone. Others benefit from studying with a group or a partner. Consider your preferences and make choices accordingly.
-Make good use of extra help. There are many resources available for helping you when you are having difficulty with the material. Also, consider asking your peers for help. You can learn a great deal from each other.
-Work neatly and use pencil so that you can easily make necessary changes.
-Celebrate your achievements. Be proud of the work that you are doing and remind yourself that small steps and improvements are very good!
