Out with the flu

| No Comments

When you are at home with some kind of sickness or some thing on a school day here is what you should check up on and do.

    It might feel good to you that you have no work to do and nothing to worry about. Actually your teacher may hand out a study guide for a big test or even little home work. If you miss that it could affect your grade latter on. The teachers are going to be more strict about there due dates and deadlines and having an absence in there class is going to make them a little annoyed. Make sure the day you back to school you go to that teacher and ask for papers that you missed in class that day and brief summery of the things that she taught that day. Also remember to turn in a late assignment the day your teacher told you to, don't turn in a late assignment on Friday when it was due on Wednesday. This if a good way to make your teacher mad because they are busy and they have other things to do. 

  A good way to know if you have home work on a day that you missed is to call one of your friends in that class and then you can know that you have to go talk to that teacher the next day. Also ask her if your teacher said any thing important so you can know to.

 

  If you are out of school for more than 2 days and planning to stay in bed a little longer. Ask your mom to call your school to gather any home work and assignments from all your teachers so your friend can pick it up and give it to you. Write down any questions you have about the assignments on a sticky note a put it on that assignment. This will show your teacher that you are serious about your work. 

Last remember to rest up and get better soon!! : )

Get Moving

   A lot of girls have trouble finding fun ways to get active. Most of the times you think about doing it but then you forget about it. The best way to solve this problem is making exercise a daily routine so every day pick a time when you are not busy with home work and other things. It could be before dinner then when you are done you can sit down with a nice meal. Just pick what ever works for you. Note that it takes about 2 to 3 weeks to break a habit so it would take that much time of not talking on the phone or watching TV to want to be out side.   

 A good thing to look into is some fun active games that get you moving like the Wii or games with dance pads. The best way to know if you got a good work out is if you have a lot of sweat. It may seem gross and icky but you will feel the accomplishment of getting out there.   

 

 In some school you go into they may have you run a mile in Gym class if so this can seem scary if it is your first time. I can be really hard to if you are graded on this and also timed. The best way to run a mile and not feel like you are very out of breath and legs sore is Practice. The best time to practice is during the summer time before school so you will have a lot of time. But when you are busy like during school days is to walk it doesn’t have to be a long one earthier. Also when you are training it is best to take small steps each day like the first day. You just try walking a half a mile then the next day do the same the start walking a mile. Once you are comfortable with that try to speed walk and try to beat your time that you set the other day. Remember to give you self a break between a few days of training to let your body rebuild its strength. Also do some breathing exercises to help you not feel so not of breath. All you have to do is a few times a day deeply breathe and breathe out. This will help your lungs become more used to breathing so heavily.                    

 

REMEMDER DO YOU BEST AND YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!!!
