Christmas Movie

    My favorite Christmas movie is Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. It takes place a year after the first movie. This time, instead of being left behind while his family went on vacation, Kevin boarded the wrong plane and ended up in New York while his family is in Miami. The burglars from the first movie, Harry and Marv, are on the loose again after breaking out of prison. The movie has a very similar plot to the first movie, but some of the booby traps are notably upgraded. I always laugh more at this movie than the first one, which is why I like it better. Some of the booby traps include Harry getting catapulted onto a car and Marv getting 5 bricks thrown into his forehead from the top of a 3-story building. Another one involves Harry getting his head caught on fire (again) and trying to put it out by dunking his head in a toilet. Unfortunately for him, the toilet was filled with a flammable gas, so the toilet exploded. How both burglars survived is beyond me. 

Here is one of my favorite scenes from the movie.

How To Prepare For Exams

     In the month leading up to your final exams, make sure that you are caught up on all of your assigned work. Remember to take very thorough notes. Do not cram all of your studying until the last second. Instead, study from 60-90 minutes each day. Creating and completing a mock test is very helpful as well. You can do this by looking in your textbooks for questions that didn't get answered in your class. Try to complete your mock test without using your textbook or notes. Try not to multitask while you are studying. If you have any questions about what will be on the test, remember to ask your teacher for help.      https://www.stlawu.edu/academic-support/how-should-i-prepare-tests-and-final-exams

Good Test Taking Habits

     When you are about to take a test or quiz, make sure to be prepared. Study for the test beforehand will help to make sure you know the material, and getting a good night's sleep will help you to better retain the information. As the teacher is handing out the test, listen closely for any instruction, so you know what is expected of you. When you get the test, read over it first so you know how long long it is. If you read through something that you don't understand, ask the teacher about it. Make sure to stay calm and relax if you are stuck on a question; chances are that the answer will come back to you. If that doesn't work, skip over the question and come back to it later. Once you are done, look over the test again and see if you missed any questions or if you made any obvious mistakes. https://kidshealth.org/en/teens/testing-tips.htm https://quizlet.com/_8saxs8?x=1qqt&i=35bn8e https://create.kahoot.it/v2/details/30de90b7-237c-4ebd-b13e-d7c7f35ad97b
