Kami Export - Time Management Tips and Activity
Make a “To Do” List Every Day. Use your school agenda planner. Take a
look at your week. Make a list of things that are most important at the top, then write them
into your agenda so that you get them done. Don’t forget to reward yourself when you get
things done.
Difficult First. Start with the most difficult part of a task or assignment, then the worst
part is done with.
Use Spare Minutes Wise. For example, if you ride public transportation
to school, this can be a good time to study or read over notes from the day before.
Review Your Notes Every Day. If you do review your notes daily, you will
need less time to study later on; also, you will be prepared if the teacher asks you a question.
It’s OK to Say “No”. If you are asked to babysit at the last minute but have an
assignment due the next day, then perhaps a friend can step in for you.
Find Out When you Work Best. Some people are “morning people” and other’s
brains work better later in the evening. What is your style?
Get a Good Night’s Sleep. Teens need at least 9 to 11 hours of sleep every
night. If you are not getting enough sleep, your brain likely won’t work very well.
Let Others Know When you are Busy. If phone calls or text messages are
proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you take social calls from 7-8 PM. This may
seem silly, but it helps.
Control Your Time. Figure out how much free time you have. Give yourself a time
budget and plan your activities accordingly. Set deadlines.
Do Not Waste Time Agonizing. Have you ever wasted an entire evening
by worrying about something that you were supposed to be doing? Was it worth it? If things
get really difficult you may need to ask for help (friend, parent or one of your teachers), but
stop agonizing and procrastinating, just do it!
