How Should Students Keep the Minds Occupied During Holiday Breaks?








There are simple tips one should adhere when gone away from school:

1.  Read appropriate newspaper clippings or articles to help improve communication and thinking.
2.  Do puzzles, quizzes and problem solving games to develop reasoning skills.
3.  Be involved in activities that help to develop reasoning skills and logical thinking.
4.  Limit the amount of television shows and computer games used unless they reinforce good             learning.
5.  Listen to good music at a medium frequency that will not affect your hearing in the later years.
6.  Help family members and friends in activities that will help build good self esteem
7.  Go to church or a place of worship and be in tune with your spiritual and moral side and allow it to grow.




As a teacher, I find that students return from long breaks not having a sense of readiness for school.  Many have had problems adjusting and as a result, their learning outcomes are negatively affected

Parents and guardians, for this Season, ensure that your children are gainfully occupied.  The mind is a lovely soul that always needs something to keep it active.  Therefore feed that soul with positive activities.

Happy Holidays!
