It seems to happen every year, and could possibly be getting worse.  The first week back from Winter break takes a lot out on students, with trying to get back in the swing of things.  So many people like to stay out late and sleep in until mid-afternoon, and when it comes time to go back to school, it’s a lot harder to get up and get ready for a long day of learning.

Going to bed earlier is a good thing to do because you have time to gain all the sleep you didn’t get or need and it means you will be more alert the next day.  This week isn’t the most fun because students  still want to be out of school and don’t want to even think about more learning.  Most people want to go out and have fun, spend more of the Christmas money and be out with friends all day and night.

School is something super important and even though all most students want to be out and have fun, there is a time to get back in gear and finish learning.
