Time+Management

7th grade is a huge difference from 6th grade. There is so much more homework, the teachers are tougher and they grade harder. I've gone through this and I think that managing your time is really important. Not finishing assignments really affects your grade. It is best to separate your activities with your study time. Just try not to let Facebook or chatting get in the way. That ALWAYS happens to me.

Try hard, plan how you are going to do your work, and don’t do everything at the very last moment. Seriously, some of these will help you a lot and you’ll end up with much better habits. Remember, it’s the small things that count.

I am the absolute most horrible person when it comes to time management. I know what I’m supposed to do but I am too lazy most of the time. So mark my words and don’t follow in my footsteps. I know some of you guys can’t help it just like me but, try. This is the perfect schedule; when you get back from school, do your thing for some 10 minutes then, go straight to your homework and studying. If you do this you will never sleep late unless you want to stay up late and you will have more free time. You will also feel better and not burdened by anything because your homework is all done. Some of you may already do this but for those who don’t, you have read this paragraph DO IT.

About school. If you do all of the above^ then you won’t sleep late which, means you won’t be sleepy at school and that leads to better participation in class. You will get better grades for your in class participation.

You should do your homework right after you get home, if you live near the school. You should finish your homework by 4:00 so you can just do whatever you want. If you do it right after school, your brain is still working and you could finish it faster.

**Seventh grade** in my opinion is more relaxed and has fewer assignments due at the same time. But of course this doesn’t mean you can slack off. You will be expected by all your teachers to take your time and to do your very best job on any due project or worksheet. If you not do so your grades will go down for sure.


 * Another thing** that will be important in seventh grade is time management. You will have a little homework from each class that you want to do very good on and some time to have fun with your friends or alone. For this I suggest you make yourself a time management chart. Fro example from 2:05 to 3:30 I will hang out with my friends, from 3:30 to 3:00 I will do my humanities and from 3:00 to 4:00 I will do my math and language homework. You should also take breaks from time to time to refresh your brain. If you have trouble with time management ask your teacher for help.

In 7th grade there are so many things to remember. Time management is handy too. If you don’t keep track of time, you’ll end up with piles of homework coming home. The best way to manage homework is to do it as early as you can. For example when school finishes and after you finish activities with your friends or at school, do the homework. You will end up forgetting to do it if you don’t. It’s also not that great to do it later in the night because you will be tired and rather do other stuff than homework. Another important tool for remembering things is the agenda. If you forget what’s today’s homework, just pull out the agenda and check. It’s as easy as that. 7th isn't like 6th grade too. If you ever forget, you'll get an F on it unlike 6th grade where your teacher tells you to bring it tomorrow.

**When **  you go to 7th grade, you should have better time management skills. You need to plan out what you are going to do after school and when you are going to study to be more self sufficient. You can plan this in your agenda, or in any notebook. It is easy, and will help you to have more time to hang out!

 **7th grade** is harder than 7th grade. There is a big difference between 6th grade and 7th grade as you have to be more responsible about mostly everything such as homework, time management etc. You also have to spend more time studying and caring about school. The teachers are going to be stricter which means you have to start caring more about your grades and everything around you. Usually in 6th grade the teachers would nag you about everything but that doesn’t happen anymore here in 7th grade. When you enter 7th grade you must be the one that goes to the teacher for help and ask for missing assignments.


 * The most important part** is Responsibility. Homework is to be done at home; you should always use your agenda to write down all your assignments as homework plays a major role in 7th grade. Time Management is also important as being tardy for class means missing the opportunity to listen to assignments or instructions, it means missing the opportunity to take notes and so on. You do not want that to ever happen as it is very important to know what the teacher says.


 * Parents become part of your school life** as parents tend to get emails from teachers more often here in 7th grade, 1 missing homework could mean being grounded by your parents as the email is sent immediately in class. Friends are important but remember that not everything in life means your friend, so always have your game in front of you and your friends. Missing lunch for homework is better than having fun at lunch and getting an F. 

**Grade 7 would be fantastic if you keep the key word in mind. Never forget this word " Responsibility " !**

In 7th grade, try to manage your time so that half of your time you spend on homework and the rest on other stuff you’d like to do. Also try to examine how you do your homework best; while listening to music, in a quiet room, when you’re in your Pajamas… it’s just whatever you like, because everyone works best differently.

If there’s one thing I learned in 7th grade, it’s time management. You get a lot more homework this year, especially in math, and you need to know how to pace your time. I suggest doing homework as soon as you can; don’t wait until 10:00 at night to start your humanities blog post due tomorrow. I realized that you need to do more quality work this year, especially in humanities, make sure your writing is always at its top best. Effort is also greatly noticed and graded, so make sure you’re giving your greatest try. J Do your math homework before Facebook, and study for your science test before IMing.

**Though** seventh grade is a lot like sixth grade, there are some things that you need to take account to. One of them is that you’ll get a lot more homework, especially in your core classes. A good way to organize your assignments is to keep track with everything in your agenda and prioritize your homework assignments according to the due date. I find this method quite useful because it lets you know which assignment is more important and which one you should do first. However, if by any chance you are in Ms. Ulster’s Humanities classroom, then you’re in luck because she has a personal blog in which it displays all the homework assignments for her class! Many students find this type of online communication useful.


 * Organization** is also a very important aspect in seventh grade too. I probably guessed that in sixth grade, your lockers looked somewhat like rubbish heaps. Well here in seventh grade, you better know where things are because many seventh grade teachers are pretty strict about tardies and the lame excuses for them! Try getting a watch; it helps a lot especially in managing your time between classes.


 * Seventh ** grade is going to be much harder than sixth grade. The homework load is not going to be that much, but the quality of the work has to be really high in order for you to get a good grade. At the beginning of the year, I always left my homework to the last minute, thinking that there’s only one assignment to be done. But when I actually got to read the instructions, I saw that the one assignment I thought was only going to take me thirty minutes or so, required one whole hour to do. In hurry and panic, I quickly did the homework, making the quality of the homework really lousy and weak. I carried on doing that for, one month. Then I realized that it isn’t going to work, that if I kept on doing it, my grade is going to be a definite B. The second thing that you need to understand is that the homework in humanities is not about remembering the vocabularies, but writing exercises. These exercises require you to think, think beyond what is already in front of you, to reflect.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 0); font-size: 120%; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">The key to success is organization and time management. There is a fair amount of work that you have to do in 7th grade; but that load will be lightened greatly if you keep organized. Keep your folders neat so you don’t lose important papers and reinforce the pages in you binders. Moreover, when you are doing your homework, just get it done quickly then you can go on Facebook after. If a project is assigned to you then get it done soon and not on the last day. If I had known these things before entering 7th grade then I wouldn’t have had any stress. If you remember these few tips then 7th grade will be great!

<span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;">One of the most important things is to make sure you got your time right. Make sure that your at least 2 to 5 minutes early in class! Trust me, it really helps. Also, you should try and look at the schedule from time to time. You'll then know what class you have next which can help you with these things:
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> Be there on time.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> Get ready for the period.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> Get anything you forgot.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif; font-size: 120%;"> And maybe even get your home work from other classes, done!

<span style="font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(128, 0, 128); font-family: Calibri; line-height: 115%;">**When** you become 7th graders, I believe the time management would be the most important. Compared to sixth grade, there is more homework in seventh grade. Therefore the time management holds an important role for doing your homework. In the beginning of year, there is not much of homework; however, you should realize that there are tests coming up. For humanities, you have a project in each quarter and you get those little assignments almost every day. For me they were okay, but the worst situation was when I had to write a new reflective essay in science. It wasn’t a pleasure because I had many assignments due on the same day.


 * This** made me to manage my time more wisely. When I had so many assignments due on the same day, I always repented for doing my homework on the last minute. If I did my homework earlier, I could hang out with my friends and relax. So now in the end of grade seven, I finish my homework earlier that the due dates. I wish I realized this earlier and I think this can help you with grade 8 math. If you get to algebra, you get homework almost every day. As one of the students of algebra, I had to complete homework earlier. Even though it may be due like a next week, you better finish it earlier because you wouldn’t finish every question. So you have a time to ask teachers.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 120%;">In middle school you need to continuously organize your time. You have a lot of homework throughout the year and even more at the end. Right now I have 2 Spanish projects, 2 ICC projects and much more homework from other classes all due either Friday (May 22nd) or Monday (May 25th). There goes my weekend. Even though I organize my time and do all of my homework my mom wants me to keep my grade up so that I can get into a good college. 7th Grade is much harder than 6th grade in homework and school work.

<span style="font-size: 120%; font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 255, 0);">Grades are also tough to keep up in 7th grade. One F can bring your A+ (100%) in a class down to a B (80%). I have always had good grades but now at the end of 7th grade I am starting to get lower grades because I have many projects due at one time. I am now managing my time so that I can hang out with my friends and get all of my work done as well. If I where to give you one piece of advice for 7th grade it would be to keep your cool and take everything one step at a time. I hope that my advice has helped you cope with 7th grade and hang out with your friends at the same time.

In seventh grade, It is necessary to use your time wisely to study for quizzes and exams, complete all your work with full effort, and hand it in on time for every assignment and every class whether you like it or not. By doing so, it can raise your grade dramatically and so your parents can be proud of you and not shout or ground you.

Some of you can already manage your time well but it is crucial that you manage it better or you will get overwhelmed with work and your grades will reflect it.

When you're just got an essay to write and you've got a week to do it, don’t do it on the last day. Not because you won’t be able to, but because you will have 7 other classes to worry about that might have another big project due the same day.

Time management is the single most important skill here. Without it, you will miss homework, not study, and not study well. Sometimes you will have to skip TV or video games if techers dump a lot of homework on you. Other times you won't have anything urgent, but projects can be worked on. It is a good skill to have.

Grade 7 is not a time to have fun or be lazy. Grade 7 is very

<span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">You won’t have a grace period like you had in grade 6. So don’t be fooled, start organizing on day one. If you don’t like organizing then at least use your agenda.

<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 150%; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif';">How has school been since the first year of 6th grade? Has studying been easy for you? Or has it been difficult for you? I hope it was easy for you. However, if the studying of 6th grade was difficult I would want to advise you how time management can help you in studying in 7th grade. First of all, as you study, you will find some difficulties in arranging the time between studying and free time. So, in order to arrange your time wisely, I think that you should make a schedule which you can always follow and arrange the time for every subject in your schedule. The advantages of a schedule is that you can take responsibility for most of your time. If you take charge of your time to use it wisely, you can be comfortable of using up your time. And if you start to use your time unwisely ignoring your schedule, you can rearrange your schedule to the time which you are more comfortable with. I strongly advise that you should have a personal schedule for your own time. Basically, use your time wisely, and everything will change in the positive way which will make your studies and grades improve.

<span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">There will of course be more homework in seventh grade than sixth grades so you might need to rearrange your time of studying.

<span style="font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri','sans-serif';">If you use the time wisely, you will finish all the work.

Don't waste time, or time will waste you. Sure you get a lot of homework, tests, quizzes and such, but that’s just the tiny piece of the pie…the rest of it is FRIENDS AND HANGING OUT!!!!!!!!!! But that doesn’t mean you got to forget the school stuff and have fun, you still got to care about your grades and all, because good grades brings good future. You have to manage your time wisely, study and prepare for tests, and DO YOUR HOMEWORK! These are some of the things that are important for a 7th grader to know. It would have made the beginning of the year a bit easier for me. Especially the time management, because you're gonna be busy with all the activites and work. So its good to quickly learn that because you can also use it in the future Another problem you might have in the seventh grade can be managing your time wisely. You must have everything organize so you don't waste you time. If you don't use your time wisely you might not be prepared, have uncompelete homeworks, and bad grades. To conclude all I would like to say it takes lot of consontration, and responsiblity. 7th grade is so different from 6th grade. The teachers don't care about what other assignments you have from other classes, just make sure you are organized with your schedule and always remember that homework comes first. The best thing to do is to finish your homework first before any other things. And a tip is to finish your core class assignments first because they affect your grades the most. Seventh grade is going to be hard. You are going to get a lot more homework. You are going to get a lot more projects. Teachers don’t know what homework other teachers gave you, nor care. You are going to have lots of home work from different subjects. You need to do the following to get good grades. You need to manage your time wisely. Try to do homework first. You can take breaks if you know you don’t have much homework. Try to not go out with your friends too long. Homework is a priority, because one little D can change your GPA drastically. Eighth grade will be harder as it prepares you for high school, so you need to ‘train’ yourself.
 * If there was any advice i would give it would be, make sure you do all your homework as soon as you can. Also make sure if you get any projects make sure you finish and get as much info as you can. also you should use your locker or you will be really in trouble. Also make sure you use your agenda for every class. For the last thing make sure catch up on your homework if you are sick one day or you will be really loaded with homework.**
