It has been a hectic term. Full time face-to-face teaching and learning. The pressure to catch up on missed learning has put tremendous pressure on students and teachers alike. So the mid-term break is a welcome pause and an opportunity to reflect on what was done.
MYP students have felt the pressure on managing themselves as regards planning for homework, revision and summative deadlines. Many face the prospect of achieving lower than expected grade level performance.
Pause. Reflect. What do I need to do to improve my knowledge and understanding in whatever subjects I am falling behind? Your teachers cannot be responsible for your lack of discipline! Come up with a concrete plan. When, what, how. Be disciplined and follow the plan. It must become a daily routine.
This break could serve as a time to revise areas you are weak in. Most of the work is on Google classroom.
But also take time to relax and unwind. Plan for the effort to come.
Then, Come back determined. Motivated. Driven to perform. Focus is what makes the difference.
Happy mid-term holidays. Take care and enjoy yourselves.
