Exams in September, how to improve the concentration of students?
Did the notes not arrive as expected? Well, there is a summer ahead to prepare for the September exams with which to pass and pass an excellent academic record.
However, the summer season is a time when it is difficult to maintain concentration For many reasons: the lack of a structured school schedule, more free time and many invitations from friends for fun plans.
But you have to achieve the concentration necessary to study and not get carried away by full leisure. Take advantage of summer to be successful in exams in September and not waste time spent in front of books. These are some tips to keep your attention on what really matters and conquer the goals set for after the holidays.
Beware of the environment
The first thing that the child must have assured is a good place to develop his study and to be able to concentrate without distractions and in some favorable conditions for this activity. This is what you should keep in mind:
- Find a suitable space for the activity you are going to do. In the case of the study, it should be a well-lit, silent and airy area. It should be always the same space.
- What is the best room? The study room should be an area away from the movement of people and where there is as little noise as possible.
- No television. The room should have the least amount of elements that can distract, such as television. In the case of the computer, it must be limited exclusively to academic purposes.
- Appropriate temperature. The heat can make students tired, especially in summer. Ensures a good temperature in the room where the child performs his duties.
- Ventilate when finished. Odors can alter the concentration of students, especially in summer. Once these tasks have been completed, the room must be set so that this does not affect the next day.
Importance of technique
Once a good environment has been achieved to develop the study, we must take care of the way of working and concentrating. Know how to proceed when performing these important tasks:
- Get organized. Nothing to leave things for the last moment. The student must take advantage of each day and set real objectives to meet in the work days.
- Sleep enough. It's no use being overwhelmed and taking hours of sleep to devote to study. A rested mind performs better than one that did not sleep enough.
- Do not lose the rhythm. Perhaps a day of rest can occur, but the important thing is not to forget the routine. Marking a continuous work day will help the mind go elsewhere.
- Monitor self-esteem. Doing the September exams does not mean that the student is less than the rest, simply that he should make a little more effort. This extra work should be in mind throughout this process and not forgotten.
- Short reviews on trips. If the family plans a trip, the child can take material to take advantage of at times such as the family spends in the hotel. A brief review never hurts.
