Help with a good School routine?

Published by: webmaster 2010-03-15

Hi=) I need some help with organization and time management=D Can you guys help me with a good plan for getting ready for school and getting homework done? I need a plan to follow or I get distracted=)

Heres some info:

I get up at 5:30 to get ready
I HAVE to take a shower in the morning(the rest of the family gets night showers because they are not morning people)
I leave for school at 7:30
School starts at 7:55
I need time for hair, make up etc.

**EVENING**

I am in honors and homework takes a long time.
Dinner is at 5:00

anything will help=)

btw I am a teen girl if that helps=p thanks

Parents of school age children, what's your back to school routine?::
How will you help make this coming year a better experience for your child We have a routine in place and he is really good about doing his HW and then

and also what are your schedules like??

Sounds familiar... I get up at around 5:30 to shower, but school starts at 7:25 for me. What I do is take a like 20 minute shower, then dry off and put in my contacts, which will take me to 6:00 or slightly after. After, I choose my outfit and get dressed, which takes until 6:10. I then do my hair, which mainly just involves blow drying it and quickly french braiding it or the like. This will take me til 6:20. Makeup comes next, but since it's only eyeliner and mascara most of the time, this only takes until 6:25, maximum. Of course, this is assuming I get up at 5:30, which I normally don't. I don't eat breakfast, but since you have more time than me, you could fit that in as well.

In the evening... I'm taking all honors courses and AP history, so I've got a lot of homework too. The best thing to do would be get the easy stuff out of the way before dinner, and then just keep working after dinner until you're done. Me, being the procrastinator I am, I wait until like 10 or 11, or later, at night to start my work and then end up staying up until 1 or 2, and leaving some of my work unfinished. Not the smartest idea I could have.

Well anyways, I hope this helps some =]

Hello! Im a freshman at prep school so i have a long day too
Here is my schedule.
6:00 wakeup- i shower at night because i hate having my hair wet, but i don't wear any makeup, i usually always have my cell on my so i know what time it is, also i don't have time for breakfast =[
6:40 bus comes
4:00 i get home from school
i have a lot of homework but i usually get the small stuff done in school during study hall (if you have that) or i do it during class
When I get home I usually start at 4:20 but I also get easily distracted tehehe
I try to get the important homework done first so I am not stuck doing it late at night like.... now

Enforcing bedtime and the importance of a good sleep routine ::
Children need a good sleep routine. During sleep, their little brains are firing synapses Some children can't help but rebel at bedtime. School choice is not just a matter of applying for a lottery ticket and hoping your child

At 11 I shower and try to study a little after
At 12 I go to sleep
I'm not really that good at time so I am curious to see what other girls have
Sorry If I wasn't much help!

if you're in a rush in the morning and don't have time to do your hair, depending on what your hair style is, you can probably just put some scrunching gel in it and let it dry, and straighten your bangs if you have them because curly bangs don't really look good. as for makeup, for daytime you can just do a simple look, my makeup usually takes about 10-15 minutes if i want to do it well. just use whatever cover up and foundation you do and then use mascara eyeliner and maybe a little lip gloss and you should be good.

when you get home from school you're probably tired so have a little snack and then work on some of your homework but allow yourself a break in between if you have loads. also, try picking out your clothes at night, it saves time in the mornings :)

hope that helped!

Wow you wake up really early. When I had to leave at 7:30 for school I woke up about 7:05. The only advise I can give you, is try to be efficient. Don't space out while you are doing your homework, and don't let yourself get distracted. Try to shower quickly (I tend to space out in there) Maybe you could get more of your homework done at school? And maybe even do your makeup once you get there.

Wow.. you get up early. I usually give myself about fifteen minutes to get ready each morning. My only everyday makeup is some mascara put on in the school bathroom. haha~

So here is what I would suggest.
5:30~6:00 wakeup, shower
6:00~6:30: Makeup, hair
6:30~6:50 Breakfast
6:50~7:30 Read something. Like newspaper. Starting off the morning with some reading makes you focus better in school.
7:30~7:55 get to school

So when you get home, give yourself at least four hours of studying and homework. More if you have an important test or assignment coming up. Remember that you need community service too, so try to squeeze some of that in too. Need energy? Coffee is a busy students best friend =]
When I actually still tried, I would usually be done with my studying and homework around 8 every night. Then you still have a few hours of socializing left.
If you need to study for a big test, but are really tired, try this. Go to sleep early at like nine. Sleep for four hours, wake up at one. Study until you have to go to school. This way what you studied is not all muddled with sleep.

6:00am - wake up/lounge a bit in bed
6:05am - actually wake up
6:05-6:25 - shower, body lotion whatever... (wash your face in the shower and stuff, it's must faster)
6:25-6:30 - moisterize your face, toner whatever (hair's in a towel)
6:30-6:45 - do hair
6:45-7:00 - make-up/perfume
7:00-7:05 - pack your bag, (doing this at night will save you time)
OR 7:00-7:20 - eat breakfast
7:20-7:30 - chill, mp3, whatever

Just write out EVERYTHING you need to do the morning before, set a time for a shower (20 mins maybe?) and set out your clothes the night before!

Mine :D:

1. Wake up at 6:00.
2. Get dressed.
3. Brush hair.
4. Deoderent
5. spray hair with hairspray.
6. breakfast
7. wash face/brush teeth
8. makeup
9. get everthing together, GOOOOO!!!!

I do this EVERY day, the SAME way...lol.

wow.. i wake up at 7:30!!
anyways, it does look a bit busy.. plan out every single bit in a piece of paper or map it out in your head.
like spend 20 min in the shower, 15 min for breakfast, 30 min for make-up and all that stuff..
for evening.. why dont you do the easy parts of homework before dinner and later really concentrate after dinner and stuff..
i hope i helped!
