You can do a few things to make homework less stressful. First, be sure you

understand the assignment. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to,

and don't be afraid to ask questions about what is expected. It is much easier to take a

minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that

night! If you want, you can also ask how long the particular homework assignment

should take to complete so you can plan your time.

Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many

schools have libraries that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get

homework done. The more work you can get done in school, the less you will have to do

that night.

Third, pace yourself. If you don't finish your homework during school, think about

how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then plan your time.

Most middle students should have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it is a

heavy homework day, you will need to devote more time to homework.

No one is expected to understand everything, and maybe you need some help. The

first place to turn for help is your teacher. But what if you don't feel comfortable with

your teacher? If you are in a big enough school, there may be other teachers who teach

the same subject. Speak to other teachers directly and you may be in luck. Sometimes it

just helps to have someone explain something in a different way. Moreover, you might

also be able to get some help from another student. If there is someone you like who is a

good student, think about asking that person if you can study together.
