Its about that time of year, where your kids’ start waking up at midday and saying that two hours of study is a productive achievement. In our house procrastination has become a refined art. Here's some tips to avoid your children doing the same.

Its about that time of year, where your kids’ start waking up at midday and saying that two hours of study is a productive achievement. In our house procrastination has become a refined art. Here's some tips to avoid your children doing the same.
1. Sleep💤 for at least eight hours but try to maintain a schedule.
2. Nourish your body with healthy foods that stimulate the mind.
3. Exercise regularly, especially during study breaks.
4. Get some vitamin D! 🌞
5. Avoid Fortnite…maybe even hide the console.
6. Study should be done in short bursts, for example, study for 20 to 30 minutes, break for 5 to 10 minutes.
7. Study breaks should not involve your phone, get up and move around…maybe even hang out the washing. 👍
8. Figure out how you learn best. For example, brainstorms, que cards, A3 diagrams, colours, voice notes, group revision sessions.
9. Outline the potential content that could be covered in the exam(s).
10. Use QUIZLET, often there are flashcards that are already made up for your subject.
11. It is about quality of study over quantity.
12. There are previous exams (and answers) available on NZQA which are great revision resources.
13. Study in different locations for different topics for example kitchen table, the public library, outside on the lawn. 🌷
14. If possible, do not study in your room, it is best to separate sleeping/relaxing space and study space.
15. Music🎼 is good, preferably 60 bpm and without words.
16. Study at least three times the hours of papers that you are sitting.
18. Eat a banana🍌 before your exam.
