Most of the time, people find themselves never having enough time to do all the things they need to do. A lot of people find it hard to organize their tasks and set schedules, which results to frustration from not being able to keep up with their work load. The key to maximizing your time is to have time management techniques that will help increase your productivity and allow you to do everything you can do in a day or a week. Time management is a necessity, starting from school and most especially at work, so you have to develop this skill as soon as you can so that you can cope with your responsibilities.

Having the right time management skills will lessen your instances of procrastinating, will have you less worried about deadlines and due dates, will allow you to become more productive, and will also give you time to relax, which is also important in any job. Try these time management techniques and see how it can help you perform at your best.

  • Schedule your day and keep track of all the things you can accomplish within it.

  • Prioritize your tasks. Keep the urgent and important ones on top. Finish those first before attending to the others.

  • Take your time in doing all of your responsibilities. Don’t compromise the quality of your work just because you have a lot of things to do.

  • Try to delegate some of your other tasks to someone if you can, so that you can focus on those that you really need to do.

  • Evaluate what you need to do and how much time you need for everything before accepting other tasks assigned to you. If you have too much on your plate, you might not be able to commit to all of them.

  • Limit the time you spend entertaining distractions. Don’t spend too much time on your emails or on the Internet in general. Finish what you have to do first before devoting time to other non-essential things.

  • Don’t forget to take a break. Refreshing yourself at least twice a day will make you more pumped to work and get things done.

These time management techniques will help you increase your productivity and allow you to become efficient and effective at work. Make a time management planner your best friend, keep track of your progress and evaluate yourself, and see how planning your work flow will help you yield the best results for yourself and for your company.

Homeschool Math – 6 Key Techniques to Know on How to Teach Math and What to Use?
Posted in Education by anshbookstore on September 7, 2022 @ 1:21 am

If you struggled with Math at all when you were growing up, you probably don’t feel adequate to teach home school Math. The truth is, though, that we use Math all the time in our day and you can use those opportunities to share Math with your children. Help your children develop a love for math using these tools:

1. Play games – Card games and board games are great tools to use to teach number concepts. You don’t have to say anything about numbers or math, just play the game and have fun.

2. Use your time in the kitchen to work with numbers. Have your children count silverware, cut pizza into fractions, measure liquids and solids in a recipe, skip count items that come in packs, subtract items from a group as you eat them, and count anything else that they may see there.

3. Show them in daily life how math affects them. Show them how to look at a calendar and count the days until a special day. When they receive money help them know the value of the coins or dollars and show them how to count it. You can even divide the money into different envelopes with them.

4. Teach them that counting by one is not the only way to count. They can use skip counting to count by twos, threes, fours, fives and more. We have made up our own skip counting songs with popular children’s songs that we know. Now my 6 year old knows how to skip count by two, three, four, five and six, not because he is a super intelligent child, but because those numbers have been put to music in a fun way.

5. Read books that enforce math concepts. Books like “How Much is A Million” and “How Much is a Billion” can show children how enormous numbers can be in a fun and entertaining format. For younger children there are many counting books that you can get from the library that teach them about numbers.

6. Use the calculator to show them how large numbers are added. They certainly need to know how to do the basic concepts of math operations, but they can also have fun using a calculator occasionally for large numbers.

Use as many senses as possible to teach math. Different children will understand certain concepts of math using different methods than others. You can use workbooks, manipulative, math games, real life, computer software, and more. Attitude is everything. If you have a positive attitude about Math, then they will be more likely to accept that attitude.
