after school


take a break. you've been working hard all day. have a snack. let your brain rest. play.
Watch a show on tv, but just one. Turn off the tv at the end of one program. You can do it. Sometimes we sit in front of the tv for a really long time but there are other things to do. Like homework. After your break time, set up a quiet place to do your homework. With the tv off.
Sure, you might say, "Aunt Jen, I can concentrate with the tv on."
I don't think it's good for your brain. Let yourself have quiet time and focus on the school work. You'll get finished faster. The work will be higher quality. Your brain will thank you for the break from all that noise. Hey, don't try to sneak your ipod. I know what you're up to.
Also, put down your phone and stop texting.
Just get the school work finished. Then you can text.
Have a great day at school tomorrow.
