How to be an effective student
Try your best
Good Effort
Research about your subject
Example: Sam always puts extra good effort into his work by researching his subject more, in other words, looking deeper into his subject without his teacher asking him too.
Neat work
Write in between the lines
Example: Although Hannah doesn't originally has neat work, she tries her best and writes neatly and in between the lines.
Good Attitude
Do all your homework efficiently
Example: Mary lets her teacher know that she is having a good attitude by doing her homework efficiently.
Good Behavior
Don't talk in class
Sit in a seat where you know you won't talk in.
Example: Joshua wants to sit next to Nathan, but he knows that he will talk and then get into trouble. So he sits next to Jennifer instead.
Look after Equipment
Mark all of your Stationery
Example: Jolie doesn't want to mark her stationery, but she doesn't want to lose her things, so she does
Don't interrupt the teacher
Don't talk when the teacher is talking
Example: "Cory? Why are you talking to Colin?" Says Mrs. Fletcher, "Just wait! It's SUPER important" Says Cory. "Come see me at lunch, you are in trouble for being rude!" Says Mrs. Fletcher.
Be Engaging
Answer Questions
To students that need help or when the teacher asks a question.
Ben needs help in Maths, but the teacher isn't in the classroom, so he asks his sister Tina to help him, se helps him and he now can answer questions easily.
Ask Questions
For questions you can't answer or the teacher asks you to answer
"What's Ten times Fourteen?" Asks Mrs. Fletcher. "1400!" Shouts Sienna. "Incorrect! Suzi? Do you have the answer?" Says Mrs. Fletcher. "Oh! Yes, I do! It's umm... 140!" She says, "Correct!"
Ask for help when needed
If you find a question very hard
Mia can't answer a question in English class. So she puts her hand up and her teacher comes to help her. Now, Mia just got an A in English .
Be flexible
Submit assessments on time
Do your assessments before the due date
It is 10 minutes before Jane's assessment is due, and she doesn't think that she can finish in time. She goes up to Mrs. Fletcher and asks her what she can do about it. So Mrs. Fletcher gives her an extra few days to finish up.
Adapt to a new teacher
Be respectful
Jamie loves Mrs. Fletcher very much, she is his favourite teacher. But to make Mrs. Fletcher respect him, he must respect her.
Adapt to new classes
Write all your classes in your timetable, which helps you remember.
Ruby's laptop has run out of battery, and she doesn't know where her new maths class is. And 20 minutes later, she finally finds her class, and the is 15 minutes late! She gets a really long detention.
