Breaking prevents burnout
It's easy to feel overwhelmed and hurried when you have a stack of homework assignments, but it's important to give your mind a rest during those long study sessions. Athletes take breaks between quarters or during innings and students should do the same thing.
For example, for every 30 minutes of completing assignments, take 5 minutes to do something fun. Call your friend for a micro chat session, or catch up with your family members. If you're online, find something fun in our study breaks in the elementary, middle, and high school areas. When you come back to your assignments, you'll feel refreshed and ready to go again.
