Homework is a large part of going to school. Unluckily, homework has to be done outside class. But you would rather do something else after class. For example, you like going to a birthday party better than copying out a whole Chinese text. Luckily, there are several things you can do to make homework less work.
First, be sure you understand the task. Write it down in your notebook if you need to, and don't be afraid to ask questions about your homework. If you want, you can also ask how long the special homework should take to finish, so you can budget(安排) your time.
Second, go over your lessons before you start your homework. Many students think they don't have enough time to finish their homework. So they begin to do it at once without reviewing their lessons. In fact, they will have to spend more time looking something up when they do their homework.
Third, use any small pieces of time you have in school to work on your homework. Then, you can finish most of your homework in school.
What if you don't have time in school to get homework done? You'll need to think about how much homework you have for certain time, and then budget your time. Most high school students have 13 hours' homework a night. If it's a heavy homework day, you'll need to spend more time on homework. So,_it's_a_good_idea_to_make_a_homework_timetable.
