Have you ever showed up to first period, thought everything was going to be okay until the teacher tells you to take out your assignment from last night and you instantly feel your heart sink to your feet? If you have well then you have forgotten more than a few assignments in your life just like any other normal teenager does but this also may mean that you may be a very disorganized person. There may also be another reason for this as well teachers give way to much homework!
Teachers have come to believe that students do not have lives outside of school, they believe that by some miracle we will be able to do all the homework they give which normally adds up to be about 2.5 hours of homework on top of work, family, friends and extracurricular activities. This may be one of the many reasons why you are forgetting to do homework, maybe it was forgetting because you have all of the other stuff you have to do and another may be that there is just not enough time in the day. Either way if you are falling behind in school because you are not getting your homework done then you probably need to figure a new way to be organized so you don’t forget all of the things you need to do tonight, here are a few tips.
1. Write everything down. You have a lot to do tonight there is no way you are going to remember off the top of your head.
2. Organize all of the books, binders, folders and papers into separate places so you know where they are at when you need to do your homework.
3. Put all of the classes that you have homework in together so you remember to take them home.
4. Plan what you need to do tonight ahead of time, organize the subjects in order of what you would like to finish first and what you would like to finish last, in order of importance or of liking. Or organize by what is most time consuming to least time consuming or vice versa.
Hopefully these tips will help you stay more organized and you won’t have that heart dropping feeling as much! (378)
