The Clever Learning Methods
Why do you need study skills? Because they will make it e(81) for you to learn and do well in class, especially as you move up to middle school and high school.
◆Pay attention in class
Do you have d(82) paying attention in class? Are you sitting next to a loud person? Is it hard to see the blackboard? Make sure you're sitting in a good seat that makes you pay attention. Tell your teacher or parents about any problem that is stopping you from paying attention and taking good notes.
◆Take good notes
Not sure how to take notes? Start by writing down facts that your teacher mentions o(83) writes on the blackboard in class. Try your best to use good handwriting so that you can read your notes later. It's also a good idea to keep your notes, quizzes, and papers (84) by subject.
◆Plan b(85) tests
It's not wise of you to wait until T(86) night to study for Friday's test. It also makes it hard to do your best. You'll feel sorry for p(87) off things often. One of the best ways is to plan ahead.
◆Get a good night's sleep
So the test is tomorrow and you've followed your study plan, but s(88) you can't remember anything, not even 2 +2! Don't worry. Your brain needs time to digest (消化) all the i(89) you've given it. Try to get a good night's sleep and you'll be s(90) by what comes back to you in the morning !
