Winter Break

Wake up early. Nothign eats away the winter break like moping around beneath the covers. Decide the previous day when you will get out of bed, then make sure follow through

During the first few days of vacation, chances are that you will relish the opportunity to sleep in. Its okay to do this and give yourself a break because your body will naturally put itself on a scheduleto wake itself up earlier

Maintain good health and hygiene. Brush your teeth and bathe often. Make sure to use sunblock even in the cold and remember that the only health tan is spray on! Winter is a great time to get in shape or stay in shape. Consider joining a sport or at the very least get outside and have fun every day

Study. Particularly if you are a high school student studying remains essential even though the school year is in the short recess. Look over last years notes or do some research into what next year's courses have in store. When school resumes youll be grarteful that your academic knowledge and skills have not deteriorated you will be ready and not panicking that you dont know soemthing. Most of you alreayd know if you have homework, reading or other research, stay on top of it. You will be grateful when you return to school. Keep your brain active. Read for school or pleasure, research your own interest or even get into crossword puzzles.


Follow a routine. However loose, the structure will both motivate you and keep hours spent doing nothing to a minimum. Dont play to many games and even if it might be cold go out for a few hours

"Its not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference."

Paul Bear Bryant

When you just want to win it wont be the same as preparing and putting effort into winning. When you prepare yourself to win you will most likely win. It is more likely to have a better game and have better performance.Just wanting to win and going at it wont give you the same results.

Paul Bryant

Paul 'Bear' Bryant was a american football player and coach. Paul was born in Septemeber 11, 1932 and died on January 26,1983. He was known to be the coach of the University of Alabama football team.

The working notebook is the daily notebook taken to class. It holds all the papers and information needed each day. Any three-ring binder can serve as a working notebook; the nylon zippered type tends to last longer. Your working notebook should contain:

• A portable three-hole punch
• A zippered pouch with three holes to hold highlighters, pencils, pens, clips, "sticky notes", and other small supploes 
• A monthly calender
• A ruler
• Section dividers for each subject labed homework, notes. handouts, and quizzes/test
• An assignment book

These items are avaliable at most office supply stores in a three-hole punched format so they can be easily inserted into the notebook. This is important, because if the items are not attached to the notebook, they will get lost in backpacks or left at home or school.
One working ntoebook for all of your childs classes might be too large for some students,especially if they are in high school. Two medium size notebooks with two or three subjects ine ach is alternative to one large notebook. Morning classes might be placed in one, and afternoon classes might be placed in another.
Whichever alternative note above that you choose, the important thing is that on a daily, you should date, three- hole punch and file any of his school papers under the appropriate divider for each subject, You should also note assignments in detail in his assignment book.

Information

Thanks to the internet, people have more access to more information than at any other time in history. People can instantly find information on almost any topic in the time it takes to type a couple of words and click a mouse. But we often know so little about the source of this information, including its reliability and the qualifications of the person who wrote it. If we don't know its source, information is not much good to us.
1. Do people need to know the source of any information before they use it?
I think they should know the source to tell if it is reliable or not
2. Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your postition with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

When gathering information from the internet you should always check if it is reliable or not. Using information that is not reliable may be something bad.Searching up a certain topic and later being mis informed is not good for the further future.

While writing something like a research paper or something and you need to look up a certain something it should always be from a website that is legit. Wikipedia is a great source of information and such. If you get false information you are misinforming yourself and others. Some may realize it is false or incorrect and you will get called out on it.

Checking on information throughly is a good way to tell if it is reliable or not. Getting information from any random site that doesn't seem too confirming is a good way to tell how good your information will be. Looking up something and find a the information stating the same thing is a good way to tell aswell. There are many sorts of ways to tell if information will be reliable or not before you confirm with yourself that the information is correct.

False information will bring many downsides to what you know about a topic. There might be many people who are not aware that there is false information or misleading information in the internets. This means that thee are many people out there who do no know the correct information. This is way you should always check your sources to make sure the information is reliable.

Getting reliable information is very important at the end. Knowing false information is not good. When looking up information, that is why you should always make sure its correct. It is best for every especially the person being informed about a topic.

Essay

Many colleges now offer courses in which students study television programs, comic books, magazines, advertising, and other aspects of popular culture. Critics complain that schools should not replace serious literature and history courses with such fluff. They claim that courses in popular culture present material that is trivial and inconsequential. But the study of popular culture can be just as important, demanding and instructive as the study of traditional subjects.


I don't think popular culture is as valuable as traditional literary and historical subjects. Traditional literary and historical subjects have much more meaning to what would be our popular culture today. Our popular culture doesn't focus on many things besides looks and such. Back then certain things meant much more than they do today.It has  a lot of meaning and more worthy thing to know about than it currently does.


Now a days things don't have to mean much to become popular. Any little thing that a celebrity does becomes popular. I would say back then things were for realistic and were more important. Today things do become popular but sometimes it isn't because they are good. There is a lot of bad media put out there for everyone to see and is not beneficial at all.

Learning about the popular culture, then again, is something that sometimes might be worth it. It would help us out in the future when what we are learning today would be history for people in the future. Learning about our popular culture now will help us advance in the future and to discover new things.

I would consider traditional literary and historical subjects more
 important by far than popular culture. It has more meaning to what was done and is something that has been passed down by generations. Even though popular culture now is more important to most people i think the past is something we should know about. This is because we should know why things are the way they are at the moment and why things were done and so on.

Popular culture as of right now i say would never be as valuable or worthy to the same level as traditional literary and historical subjects. Historical subjects made a big impact in the world. They also made change to what our country is like right now. This is something important to know and meaningful.

“Stop worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what’s happening right this moment.”

Time Management 8 of 10

Time Management

8 of 10

Master the moments and you may be a real pro when it comes to juggling the many demands on your time – classes, homework and activities – with some family help. College gives you an even bigger chance to sharpen your time management skills by doing it all on your own. And that’s a good thing since most jobs require multitasking. You might need to take care of current clients while attracting new ones, respond to e-mails while working on a major presentation, or order tomorrow’s produce while planning next week’s menu.

Someone said, “Wherever you are, be there.” Focus on the present moment and give it all your attention. Don’t let your mind drift and wander here and there when you need to be thinking and concentrating on the moment at hand. You can’t go back and recapture this moment, so make the most of it while it NOW. Master the present and you will master the future. Work smart by mastering the present moment.]

Attention to Detail 7 of 10

Attention to Detail

7 of 10

When you double-check your calculations for a math problem or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.

            John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who led his team to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributes his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that paying attention to detail was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.

Details may be small things, but from small things come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational  attain
