Teacher Abi Says #1

When you are trying to learn something new, whether it's playing an instrument or a new topic in class, it is crucial that you make it super convenient to access the things that you need for it.



According to "happiness researcher" Shawn Achor, adding 20 seconds of "activation effort" to anything can kill a person's motivation. 

Activation effort refers to the energy that you expend to get started on doing something. If you find it even a little bit more difficult to do one task, you are more likely to give up on it. 

So if you reduce the time it takes for you to do something new by 20 seconds, you are more likely to do it. His example was, if you want to learn how to play the ukulele, it might help if you place the instrument near the sofa rather than inside a cabinet.

If your resolution for this year is to do your homework more often, it might be helpful if you dump your books and notebooks on your study table as soon as you get home. Since the books are already out, should you decide to take a crack at that Physics homework, it is easier for you to reach them.

Meryl:    Ano raw ang sabi ng tagapagbalita? Albert:   Ayon daw sa PAGASA , Signal Number 2 na ang bagyo  dito sa  Metro Manila. Wala tayong pasok. Meryl:   Pero  ayon kay Nanay , meron daw tayong pasok. Inihahanda na nga  niya ang baon para sa atin . Albert:   Baka hindi niya narinig ang balita sa radyo. Meryl:    Halika, sabihin natin kay Nanay kung ano ang narinig natin sa  balita.           Ang mga pariralang nakasalungguhit ay mga pang-ukol.
