You can support your student by ensuring that he/she gets enough rest, eats a healthy breakfast, and arrives at school on time each day next week. Research shows that while many middle school students prefer to study while listening to music or watching TV, they are much less likely to retain information when studying in that way. Encourage your child to study in a quiet space without distractions and to stick with instrumental music for background noise if needed.
