Most teachers do not teach kids HOW to study, they just give kids terminology (as an ex) and send them home saying,"Study for Friday's test." Most kids study instinctively. Others, now adults, have had to develop compensatory skills (tricks to get the job done that work for them). I was one such student. So, to the instinctive student I ask you to reflect on HOW you "study" and to the student who developed compensations, I ask what worked for you?
Previously, the best response I got was:
Read the questions 1st! Then write down every bold print title and the italicized words and their def. for the next days lessons. Then read that portion of the text. When reading for comprehension in a library book write down the characters as they show up and tell who they are in relation to the main character. Write down places,cities,year,century,etc... When you finish reading for the time period, read over your notes and put the notes with the book or put in a certain section in your notebook
