• Don't let your imagination go too far. Try to refocus on class by incorporating the content into your fantasy flights. For example, if you are bored with math hours, try to bring the lesson into the virtual world of robots to pull you into reality and stick to the lesson. Were those robots fighting each other using quadratic equations?

Draw doodles into notebooks. If the teacher doesn't walk around the classroom to see what the students are writing, you can try drawing in the notebook while the teacher is speaking. Leaning your notebook to you looks like you're writing, although you're actually making time go by faster.

Enjoy composing time. This method is even more effective than miscellaneous drawing. As long as the teacher doesn't take a closer look at what you are writing, it looks exactly like you're writing it. Keep a journal or write a message for a best friend. You could also try writing a short story based on what you see in the classroom. Talk about the life of the other paperclip, for example.

Rhyming. Try to turn every word of the teacher into a rhyming sentence. For example, if your teacher says, "The climate in Spain is very wet," you might think, "You know Spain, it's raining a lot". The benefit of this is that you remain somewhat focused on the lecture.

Count your steps on the path to freedom. Choose something to count. You can count how many times your teacher uses the word "will" or how many times he says "Attention!" Counting forces you to stay awake and keeps you from overlooking time. advertisement

Method 2 of 3: Participate in class

1. 

   Come to class with a willingness to learn. If you do not know anything about the lesson that day, you will be bored sitting in class because you do not understand the lesson. Time will pass more slowly when we are bored. If you are prepared in advance, class will seem more enjoyable, and time will pass faster.
   • Prepare the lesson before class, including all the reading material. This will also help you review previous notes to remember where the lesson has been while you wait for class to begin.
   • It also helps to be healthy before class. Eat a nutritious breakfast or lunch and get enough sleep so you can focus on your lessons while sitting in class.

2. 

   
   
   Interact with teachers and classmates. When you get the chance, speak up in class. Join contributions when everyone discusses. If you don't divide the class into small groups for discussion, at least your teacher encourages students to ask and answer questions. The fact that you actively participate in the lesson instead of being discouraged from sitting still will make the lesson seem to pass faster.

3. 

   Improve listening skills. Contributing in class isn't just about having to talk more, it's also about listening better.
   • Try to ignore noises other than the teacher's speech or when your classmates speak. As such, try not to pay attention to noises such as the sound of a pencil hitting behind, the sound of paper scratching on the side or the siren of a car outside the classroom. You need to force your mind to focus on the teacher's lecture.

4. 

   Take notes effectively. Taking notes is not an innate skill. You have to learn how to take good notes, and this takes practice. Fortunately, you always have time to do this while at school.
   • Focus on key points. You can't rewrite every word your teacher says unless you bring your laptop to class and have super-fast typing capabilities. This means that you need to focus on writing down the main points. The teacher will help you by emphasizing a few times what is most important, maybe even telling you what to write.
   • Besides, you should also pay attention to the words the teacher writes on the board or on the projection screen. You probably know that these are the key points.

5. 

   Try to show it your own way. One way to help your brain work in class is to think about your “dream person” or someone you like. You can remember your memories or take notes with your words. If you just write down exactly what the teacher said, then you may not really absorb that information. However, if you try to put it into your own words, you'll get busier and learn more as well.
   • For example, if the teacher says, "One of the great wars of the 20th century is World War II", you could write, "Great war, 20th century, World War II" . You don't need to write a whole sentence, just write the main idea.
   • Do not hesitate to use abbreviations to write more information.

Method 3 of 3: Breaking boredom

1. 

   Divide the class into sections. When you look at the overall length of the class, you will find it seemingly endless. But when dividing the class into small chunks, passing through the short intervals seems easier. Of course you only do this in your head, but this little game will help you feel the lesson pass faster.
   • For example, you could divide your class into “starting class”, “acquiring information”, “taking notes”, “taking notes home” and “getting ready to leave”. You can even write them down and cross them out as you go through them. Another way is to break the class into specific intervals, such as the first 15 minutes, the second 15 minutes, and so on.

2. 

   Find out what causes you to be bored with class. Write down things that you find annoying or bored at school. Maybe it's because you don't like certain subjects. Maybe it's just because you don't like to sit for a long time. You may not be able to stand talking during that time. Write down all of those reasons, whatever they are.

3. 

   Try to find a solution to the problem. If you can't sit still for too long, ask the teacher if you can give the class a few minutes break in the middle of the hour to do some stretches. So you can be more active. If you are tired of studying a certain subject, find something you like about that subject. For example, you hate history, but you may find it more enjoyable to read specific stories about characters from that period instead of learning in general.
   • You can't change everything you don't like about school, but you can change a few things. Don't be afraid to talk to your teacher about things that might help you. Some teachers may not agree to change, but many will be willing to do everything they can to help students.
   • If you want to approach your teacher to suggest something, be sure to do it outside of the classroom. Try looking for a teacher after class. You can say, “Hello teacher. I came to ask you a teacher. I know the time in class is short, but I'm thinking if the class can take a break in the middle of now. You can concentrate more if you move a little. Probably the other friends too. I understand if you disagree, but I hope you think about it. ”

4. 

   Challenge yourself. Sometimes you can feel a bit bored of having to wait for other students to catch up. If so, you can ask your teacher to assign you something more difficult in the meantime. Your teacher may assign you a task to manipulate your mind and entertain you. advertisement

Advice

• Ask your teacher for permission before using the phone or studying other subjects.
• Listen when the teacher says something important.
• Sometimes please go to the bathroom just to be outside for a few minutes. However, many teachers do not like this because it can create a "chain reaction", when one person asks to go out, then one after another will imitate. You also try not to do this when it is almost time or when you are in class after the break, as the teacher will say “I should have gone at recess” or “I can go when it's recess”. .
• Make sure you don't get in trouble when doodling or doing anything for fun.
• Eating a piece of cake or sucking on mint can also help lift your mind out of boredom and keep looking at the clock, but make sure your teacher allows it!
• Try not to think about how dull and lengthy your time at school is.
• Complete as many quests as possible. Sometimes you get called up and don't know what the teacher is talking about, so make sure you don't get too distracted during class.
• You can squeeze the health orb to get rid of boredom.
• Try drawing on your feet or palms, but make sure you don't let the teacher see you doing this.
• Try having a FUN chat with the classmate sitting next to you as the teacher walks out of the classroom. Don't say it out loud, you might get caught.
• It is best to focus on the lesson, as time usually flies very quickly, and soon you will realize that class is over. But if you do not understand the article, you should try and take notes so that you can review everything later and understand.
• Try not to look at your clock while in class. Try directing your mind to something else, like a good book.
