Revision is an important part of preparing for SATs week.
Here are some tips for when you are revising or completing
homework tasks:
- Choose a place to revise where you will not be distracted.
- Drink plenty of water. Water stops your brain dehydrating and will help you
concentrate for longer.
- Get plenty of sleep. If you are tired, you will never perform to the best of your ability.
- Take a short break every 20 minutes.
- If you get stuck on something, come back to it later or ask a teacher / parent to help.
- Reward yourself for working hard. It might be playing out, watching a favourite TV programme or having a biscuit.
- Study in short sessions, but often. Don't spend hours working away!
