How to Always Succeed in School Part 4


How to Always Succeed in School
Part 4
Read. You can read whatever you want: Sports Illustrated, Jet, The New York Times, comic books, the Holy Bible, your Cheerios box, online blogs or web articles… whatever! Reading increases your brainpower.
*   Look up words you don’t understand in the dictionary.
*   Read assignment questions first to help you identify key points.
*   Take breaks from reading to write down what you learn.
*   Read outside of class to improve your reading skills.
*   Read out loud with your friends, classmates or parents.
*   Read with a purpose.
*   Take reading courses to improve your reading rate and comprehension.
*   Take a speed-reading course if you desire.
*   Take notes while reading.
*   When possible, read from your own books and materials; this way, you can mark, highlight, cross reference, write notes in the margins, etc. If the book belongs to someone else or the library, you can’t do this.
*   Read religious literature.
*   Read from the internet.
*   Read daily. Set a goal to read a book at least each month. Then a book a week.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
