<b>V. Read the text and answer question </b>
It is that time of the school year again. Particularly for students heading to middle school or high school, the homework assignments become tougher, workloads get heavier. Students should have good study habits for a productive school year.
First, a planner can help a student keep everything organized and students should write down assignments, appointments, and to-do lists. Ask him or her to review items in the planner at both the beginning and end of the day.
Second, students shouldn't have any surprises when it comes to how and what they will be marked on. By middle school and high school, most teachers will provide a course outline or syllabus, which can serve as a guide for the semester. The student should feel comfortable approaching teachers with questions about marking and assignments at any time.
Then, at home, studying in front of the TV won't be the best use of the student's time. Help him or her by providing a quiet, well-lit space for study time. Next, students need to know when a test will take place, the types of questions that will be included and the topics that will be covered. From there, your student should create a study plan and allow sufficient time to prepare for their lessons or tests - there's nothing worse than cramming the night before an exam.
