The summer holiday is over. Some students are thirsty for knowing their new teacher and meeting their friends to share their summer adventures, and while others are more worried about the new year. Here are some tips to help you beat the stress and organize your study environment.
Reconnecting with a healthy lifestyle
During holidays, children have often been allowed to sleep late and eat a little of what they wanted at any time. The first thing to do is to help yourself make a smooth start and not to wait until the last day to find a healthy lifestyle. You should get used to having regular and reasonable hours of sleep and eating healthy food. This of course needs several days of “rehabilitation.” The ideal thing is to start reconnecting with a healthy lifestyle one week to ten days before school starts.
Create a pleasant study environment
A few days before school starts, do a tidy-up of the desk and the shelves. Sort and throw away the relics of the past year. Donate your old books, pens and school things if they are still usable. Clean up your desk. Make it a comfortable place to do your homework. Your workplace should be a quiet well-lit corner where it feels good.
Talk over with your parents
If you feel anxious of the new school year, it is very important to talk to your parents about your fears. They will surely find a way to help you get over your fears and gain confidence. They will certainly show you that they believe in your abilities, and will be willing to help you with your first pieces of homework if need be.
