Dear Sue,
I have so many things to do every day. Besides my schoolwork every weekday, I go to a chess club twice a week. I often have to help my younger cousin. She just started primary school and has some difficulties in Maths. On top of all that, I have classes in dance, piano, art. . I like doing lots of different things, but Tm so busy! Yesterday, I fell asleep during class. I was so embarrassed.
What should I do? Can you help me?

Dear Tired Girl,
Sorry to hear about your trouble. You are such a busy kid!
I think you should take some time to think carefully about your plan. You can list all the things you need to do each week in a notebook. Can you do all of these things and get enough rest to stay healthy? If not, decide what things must be done and what can be dropped from your list.
Here are some other tips that may help you:
●Plan your study time for each subject and do a review every weekend.
●Organize your notes right after classes.
●Take a few minutes every evening to check how your plan is going.
Making a good plan is half the work itself.
Best of luck
Sue
