Create a Healthy Home Study Environment
After a long day of lectures, it’s natural for students not to want to get started on homework right away. Breaks are an important part of the studying process, and working them into your assignment schedule is an ideal way to develop healthy rest habits. First, get a plannerto help organize due dates, class times, and important events. Then, create set homework hours with assigned slots for breaks. The Pomodoro technique is a great place to start for developing break schedules!
Stock up on Sustainable School Supplies
Students need school supplies to experience school efficiently. Luckily, you can stock up on supplies that not only help you be prepared but eco-conscious as well! First, check if you have any spare school supplies from last semester that are still usable. Then, shop sustainably online for all the rest. EarthHero offers earth-friendly essentials like recycled newspaper pencils and bamboo ballpoint pens!
