Balancing High school and Part time Work

Part 5

Additional Tips

Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:

·       Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.

·       Start slowly; don’t commit to working a lot of hours immediately.

·       Avoid time conflicts by planning you class and work schedules as far ahead of time as possible.

·       Use your time efficiently. You can use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go over a few pages of assigned reading. if your job has a lot of downtime and your boss has no objection, you can yse slow periods to do schoolwork.

·       If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.

·       Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other things you’d like to do because of your school and work commitments.

·       If you have too much on your plate, admit it. Then cut back as needed.

·       Schedule relaxation time. Everyone needs some downtime to stay happy and healthy.

Summary and reflection

Summary:

A little girl was locked and barracaded in a restroom for six years. She was only let out to go to school and also when visitors would come over. Other than that she was not let out.

Reflection:

This is a horrible thing to do. Grandparents who have endangered a small child is just completely unacceptable. They have no heart and no right to do that to anybody, especially their grandaughter. They should pay for the wrong they have done.

Sarah’s Academic Success Story

Part 2

My test study method: I have different strategies for different types of tests or subjects. For me, any type of math is exceptionally difficult so I had to spend extra time on that. I would go back through the homework problems focusing on the problems that I had extra difficulty on. Many times I would ask the teacher for any additional study materials they could provide. If it was a class that required memorization or applying concepts I would create a sort of study guide for myself many times focusing on what were key focal points in the class. If I knew there were going to be essays I would try to take the terms and apply them to an example or create different questions on the concepts focused in throughout the semester.

My time management secret: I always always carry a planner with me. I even use different color highlighters to show what each event on my calendar is for. For example, pink, pink is personal, yellow is school, orange is work, blue is for appointments, and green is for my sorority. Although I use whit-out frequently, I can see in bright in bright yellow that if I have that project for finance due Tuesday, I need to start working on it on the previous Wednesday so I can just get it done. My friends have always been so amazed at how early I get things accomplished but that is really all I do.

"American Idols" very gentle giant known as Jermain Jones was disqualified for his criminal past. He was arrested and charged with two crimes. One of the charges was for hindering apprehension and giving false information.

Refection:

He chose the wrong especially for choosing the wrong and giving false information. What he did was wrong, especially for trying to hide his criminal past. That is very bad and not a good thing to do. 

Holiday break

I missed my media class so much i have tears of joy now that i'm back. i didn't go to many places. All I did was working out early with a friend of mine. We also got a few friends to play together. We played a game of bascketball.
              It was a lot of fun and reallty did enjoy it. For christmas i went to spend with someone who is really close to my family. It was so much fun. I'm the youngest one in my family and my sisters are grown up. They wanted to spend New Years on their own so i decided i was gonna stay alone with my dog on New Years. It was lots of fun spending the night with my dog and celebrating while people nextdoor were having a blast.

My great academic success: In my principles of marketing class, we had come up with a new product and sell it. My group ended up with a couple supposedly bad students according to our teacher since they were the last ones picked. In the end, they helped out more than needed since I was team leader I assigned them certain pieces of the project that became solely their responsibility. Delegating work always helps since it allows a group member individual work without separating the group.

English ,math, foreign language tips: Math basically just takes practice. I always tell students to take a blank piece of paper and write everything you know about what you’ve learned or what you’re studying for in the class. If you don’t remember everything or star drawing blanks, then you need to study more and review your notes. Note cards work really well for foreign language.

Here are my final words of wisdom for  students who want to get better grades in college: Go to class just in case you’re absent, and remember that you should want to learn.
