Mr. Primmer's Fantastic Study Tips
1. Have fun!!!! Take a genuine interest in what your are studying!2. Use the website, all notes, handouts, and articles given over the course of the unit.
3. Reading over your notes is not enough to prepare you for the test.
4. Quiz yourself, make flash cards, re-write notes/definitions.
5. Try saying your notes or explaining your notes out loud to a person or pet.
6. Choose a study environment that is free from distractions (example: library, coffee shop, kitchen table).
Self Check List:
1. Have I read over my notes/textbook? (Rate 1-10 = ______)2. Have I quizzed myself on the terms/topics? (HINT: put a check mark √ beside topics that you are really familiar with, put a ? besides topics that you are not totally sure about, and put an X beside topics that you don't know) (Rate 1-10 = ______)
3. Have I re-wrote important concepts? (Rate 1-10 = ______)
4. Have I wrote practise questions? (Rate 1-10 = ______)
