Part 2 

Choose where to study
Where you should study depends on two factors: the environment in which you are best able to concentrate and the type of work you are planning to do.
·        The best places to study have good light, a comfortable temperature and enough desk space – usually your dorm room your apartment or the library.
·        For completing problems sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.
·        When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social environment.
Improve your study habits
Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:
·        Have a routine for where and when you study.
·        Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.
·        Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.
·        Take breaks if you need them so you don’t waste time looking at material but not absorbing it.
·        Get to know students whom you respect and can study with or contact to ask questions.
·        Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

Develop good study habits
In college, you’ll need to build on the study skills that you learned in high school. The demands of a college class are probably more rigorous than those you are used to.
You can succeed by knowing what to expect and how to handle it.
Think of college as a full-time job, in which you spend 40hours a week on class, labs, study groups and doing homework.
Being organized and using your time well are essential. Learn more about time management, and use the guidelines below to develop your study skills.
Decide when to study
Work out about how many hours you need to study every day. Then make a schedule.
·        Figure out what blocks of time you have available throughout the day, in the evenings and on weekends.
·        Consider what time of day you are most alert – there are morning people and night owls – and try to schedule your studying accordingly.
·        Think about whether you do better studying foe a few hours at a time or sitting down for marathon sessions.

10 time management tips for students
Tips 5-10
Tips 5. Review Your Notes Every Day.
Reviewing helps you reinforce what you’ve learned, so you need lees time to study before a test. You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take pop quiz.
Tip 6. Get a Good Night’s Sleep.
Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day seem longer and your tasks seem more difficult.
Tip 7. Communicate Your Schedule To Others.
If phone calls of text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you are only available at certain times of day and not to expect a response at other times.
Tip 8. Become A Taskmaster.
Give yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.
Tip 9. Don’t Waste Agonizing.
Instead of agonizing and procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evening worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress.
Tip 10. Determine Your Priorities.
You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of each item. Then set realistic goals that are attainable.

Tips from college students
Tips for high school students to prepare for college
1.   Be prepared to make a lot of reading in college.
2.   Learn time management: use a calendar and plan how to use your time. Learn to manage your time while still in high school, keep a calendar of all exams and paper due dates.
3.   One of the biggest transitions between high school and college is development of time management skills- students must learn to balance school and social life.
4.   Be prepared to discipline yourself, as the temptation to slack could be great. If you miss 4-5 classes in a semester, you may not make it through the semester successfully.
5.   Being sick affects your ability to be a student and remember that community living contributes to the cold/flu season.
6.   Learn to read- summarize and outline reading.
7.   Learn to take notes in class.
8.   Learn study.
9.   Start the college and scholarship search as early as possible.
10.Take as many science, math, English, and foreign language courses as you can; they build a foundation for college.
11. participate in volunteer and community services programs. It helps with scholarships!
12. Take advantage of the advanced classes offered in high school.
13. think about what characteristic in a university are of most importance to you (climate, anvironmet, degree offered, size, location, etc.) before marking a final decision about attesting college. Visit them if possible.

1.   “ I think the most important thing to let high school students know is not to overlook anything. When I was in high school I often asked myself, “ why do I need to know this?” then  if I didn’t think it was pertinent, I wouldn’t brother to study it. But college, all those seemingly unneeded tools come together in the real life (e.g.: feding an intersection of those two lines in algebra is later important in cost/revenue calculations). In thje way osf classes, learning to read and write well is very important. The focus should be on the format and clarifying ideas in writing ,and being able to pick out the important parts of writing (the testable facts.) voluntaring and joining clubs are important

Habit 7 part 1
Habit 7: sharpen the saw
Teens should never get too busy living to take time to renew themselves. When teens “sharpen the saw” they are keeping their personal self-sharp so that they can better deal with life. It means regularly renewing and strengthening the four key dimensions of life-body, mind, heart, and soul
1)   Body. Eat wholesome foods, fruits, vegetables, legumes. Avoid illegal drugs, smoking, alcohol, tobacco products, tattooing. Exercise regularly and effectively. Get plenty of rest at night. Get to bed early at night and get up early each morning. “Early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”
2)   Mind. Think positively. Read. Study. Think. Analyze. Seek to read a good book each month. Then each week. Ask intelligent questions. Observe. Develop your mind through positive “self-talk.”

Habits 5
5. seek first to understand, and then to be understood because most people don’t listen very well, one of the great frustrations in life is that many don’t feel understood. This habit will ensure your teen learns the most important communication skills there is: active listening.
Why is this habit the key to communication? It’s because the deepest need of the human heart is to be understood. Everyone wants to be respected and valued for who they are a unique, one –of-a kind, never-to-be-cloned individual. People won’t expose their soft middles unless they feel genuine love and understanding. One they feel it, however, they will tell you more than you many want to hear. People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.
Listen with your eyes, heart, and ears. 7 percent of communication is contained in the words we use. The rest comes from body language (53 percent) and how say words, or the tone and feeling reflected in our voice (40 percent). Most people are eager to talk and had rather talk than listen. We have one mouth and two ears. This means we should listen twice as much as we talk. We actually learn more while listing rather than when we talk. Learn to listen and listen to learn. Listen, really listen, for understanding.
Seek first to understand then to be understood_ LISTEN.

Valentine’s .




   Valentine’s .
      Valentine’s day, this is a very special day for couples. Is not only the day to show someone how much you care about them. You could do that every day can you ? a lot of high school students get excited for this day. It’s the day of love the day of friendship. You’re going to see so much bears, flowers, chocolates given on this day. I think this day is really special. Why? Because you can show someone your feelings that that person didn’t know you had for them. To show how much you care for them. It’s not the material that counts is the thought, if the present or gift isn’t big that doesn’t mean you love them or care for them less. Valentines is filled with joy and happiness.
    couples celebrate their relationship and the joy of their togetherness. This day is important to businesses, not only because it’s going to bring many customers. It’s a good thing because a lot of couples go out to restaurants to celebrate their happiness together. Almost no one knows the history of valentine’s day only some ancestors do.  This date is dedicated to the patron saint of romantic causes.

 1 habits of highly effective teens
                                                                       habit 4
4. think win-win
teens can learn to foster the belief that it is possible to create an atmosphere of win-win in every relationship. This habit encourages the idea that in any given discussion or situation both parties arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. You teen will learn to celebrate the accomplishments of others instead of being threatened by them. Win-win is a belief that everyone can win. it’s both nice and tough all at once. I won’t step on you, but I won’t be your doormat either. You care about other people and you want them to succeed. But you also care about yourself, and you want to succeed as well. win- Win is abundant. It is the belief that there’s plenty of success to go around. It’s not either you or me. It’s both of us. It’s not a matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. There’s more than enough food for everyone. It’s an all-you-can-eat buffet.
     Win-Win always creates more. Perhaps the most surprising benefit of thinking Win-Win is the good feelings it brings on. The true test of whether or not you are thinking Win-Win or one of the alternatives is cloud your judgment and fill you with negative feelings.
Win-Win will fill your heart with happy and serene thoughts. It will give you confidence. Even fill you with light. Think Win-Win or no deal.

Habit 3: put first things first
Habit three is about will and will not power. This habit helps teens prioritize and manage their time so that they focus on and complete the most important things in their lives. Putting first things first also means learning to overcome fears and being strong during difficult times. It’s life according to what matters most. Putting first things first deals with things that are:
important or not important, urgent or not urgent. Let’s look at the four quadrants of time management.

Quadrant 1: things that are important and urgent
Quadrant 2: things that are important But NOT urgent
Quadrant 3: things that are NOT important but are urgent
1.     Important & urgent
2.     Important but NOT urgent
3.     NOT important but are urgent
4.     NOT important and not urgent
Quadrant 2 is the ideal place to spend our time, doing things that are important but not urgent. Here’s where priorities come into play. The results for living quadrant 2 are:
·        Control of your life
·        Balance
·        High performance
So, in what quadrant are you spending most of your time? the key is to shift as much time as possible into quadrant 2 and this is accomplished by planning. Spend more time planning and incorporating the most important things first, things that matter most. Keep your eyes on the prize and reach for it.

habits 2: begin with the end in Mind
if teens aren’t clear about where they want to end up in life, about their values, goals, and what they stand for, they will wander, waste time, and be tossed to and fro by the options of others. Help your teen create a personal mission statement which will act as a road map and direct and guide his decision- making process.
“keep your eyes on the prize.” Determine your desired prize and don’t quit until you have realized the achievement of your prize. Then set another prize, another goal or desire that you would really like to achieve. Being the achievement of you prize in mind. Visualize and then realize. Star by having a target in mind; know where you are going.
One prize or goal you definitely need to establish for yourself is the prize of an honorable graduation from high school-that you will receive you diploma honestly and with integrity that you earned it with perfect honesty.
