Summarize:

This way you will have a list of what you need to complete.  Before leaving school, make sure you understand the assignment. Ask your teacher for clarification about what you are supposed to do, when the assignment is due, and how it will be graded. Ask how long each assignment should take, so you can plan to budget your time. Tasks which are worth a higher percentage of your grade or that are more challenging should be completed first.  Look at your assignment list. Rank each assignment in terms of importance and level of difficulty. Plan out how much time you need to spend on your homework for the evening. Decide in what order you will complete your assignments. Most students have between 1 to 3 hours of homework every evening and often finish their homework when they get home.   If you have after-school activities in the late afternoon, you will need to set aside a different time. Plan to sit down and start your homework at a specific time. Budget enough time for each assignment. Plan to take a 5-minute break between major assignments. Most people can't concentrate for hours and hours on end.
Write down all of your assignments in your notebook or planner. Prioritize your assignments. Plan your time.
