Advice for Middle School and 9th Grade

I am almost finished with 9th grade. It seems like I just started high school a few weeks ago and it is almost over already. I have a lot of advice for kids going into middle school and some advice for 9th grade. Middle school can be really easy for some and really hard for others. This tip is just a generally good thing to do. The tip is to study. I do not mean study for 15 minutes and say you studied. You need to study for a few reasons. The first is that if you study and learn the material now, then exams will be so much easier. The second reason is that you think you know the information, but then you take the test and do not know anything. Do not just assume you know everything you need to know for a test, be safe and take the time to study.

This next tips are for the rising 9th graders out there. You will find that you will have a lot of homework for all of your classes. I was very surprised of how much of it there was. The first week of school all of my classes had assigned me homework and it took 3 hours to do it. That is on the shorter end of the scale. Sometimes homework takes even longer, especially on the weekends. The tip is to use your tutorial and study hall times wisely, especially if you have after school activities. If you use you time wisely then your homework load at home will decrease dramatically. The second tip that I have is to plan out your night so that it is possible to get all of your work done and still have some free time. The third tip is not to procrastinate. You can get a lot of homework done on the weekend for the week ahead and this is especially helpful if you have after school activities. All of these tips should help you manage your work in a way that it is not overwhelming and you can still have some free time on the side.
