How I Avoid Frustration When Tackling a Difficult Problem

Hi, my name is Andie and my goal is to help average students get into their dream colleges by becoming excellent test takers.

Learning something new can be difficult. I have found myself getting frustrated when I'm not learning it as fast as I want to or when I'm pressed for time and I don't manage to understand a concept on the first read through. In times like these, how I avoid frustration is by:

Stepping away from the problem. Taking a much needed step back can allow you time to process and reflect on the question and the methods you've been using to solve it. Sometimes, I'm able to return to the question later with a new idea on how to solve it or a different perspective on where I might have been going wrong.

Finding help. Going to your teacher or a tutor has been one of the most helpful things I've done. For so long, I was so scared of being seen as dumb that I avoided asking for help, even if I really needed it. But, I've learned that it's okay to ask for help!

Checking the steps I've already done. Sometimes the issue with your problem isn't what you think it is. There have been times when the reason I'm not able to move past a certain point in my problem is because there is an error with the work I've already done. Simply checking your work can help a ton!

Looking for a step-by-step tutorial for a similar problem. This has saved me so much time! Bonus points if the person explaining it doesn't assume you know everything (even if you "should") and takes the time to explain foundational concepts that are super important to be able to solve the problem.

These are just a few strategies that I have found helpful for me when I'm trying to tackle something difficult while preparing for an exam. If you’re using this to help figure out how you can prepare for your upcoming exam, I hope you found value in this article. If you did, please like it and share with a friend! And, I would love to hear what topics you would like for me to cover next!

Until Next Time,

Andie

Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston

Welcome to the first edition of I DIDN"T KNOW THIS WOULD BE ON THE EXAM, AND SHIT! IT"S A BETTER OPTION THAN THE BOOKS I HAD TO READ FOR CLASS.

Their Eyes Were Watching God is the journey of Janie Crawford, an African American woman finding her way through life.

couple of notes before I start:

This book is written in phonetic english, and there is a huge important to dialect

Centered around an African American Woman in the south, and there are some sad but true instances of racism towards the end.

Around 200 pages, so If you have time to read it, I truely recommend it. There are some beautiful gems in here, along with the name for the title.

READ IT IF YOU CAN!! If not, here you go.

CHARACTERS:

Jaine: The protagonist who is an idealistic dreamer and spends the story chasing love and finding it. When she is faced with hardship, she stands strong until someone opens a new door. She ultimately has to learn to let go, but does not forget her lover.

Grandmother: Jaime’s grandmother who raised her, and wants the best for her, in her own way. She marries her off in an attempt to protect her.

Logan: Jaime’s first husband who doesn't love her, but attempts to take care of her, until she has had enough and runs away.

Jody Starks: Jaime’s second husband, who provides her with an escape and the illusion of love. Their relationship technically lasts until he dies.

Tea Cake: Jaime’s third husband, and true lover. He dies in an act of love for her and she ultimately has to return the favor.

SYNOPSIS:

It begins with a woman returning to her home after being gone for many years. She returns to the whispers and gossip of her town, but only sets the record straight when her friend comes to visit her, and so she begins her narrative. She starts at the very beginning with the fact that she was raised by her grandmother, not her mother. Her grandmother, who is unwilling to let Jaine live like either her mother or herself, decides that Jaime is old enough and marries her off to an older farmer. Jaine, however, is a dreamer and wants love for herself. So, when a younger man shows up on her doorstep, after fighting with her current husband, doesn’t hesitate to run off and marry the younger man, Jody. At first, everything seems to be going well for Jaine and Jody, who treats her like royalty, with him becoming mayor of a town and her clerking a shop. It soon becomes clear that he is isolating her, however, and when she tries to fight him on it, she gets shut down by her husband; this is described by Jaine as another dream dying. So, Jaine suffers in silence alone, until her husband begins to waste away, and after an argument, he dies escorted out by death and her words. After about nine months she is being courted by a younger man named Tea Cake, whom she has gone and truly fallen in love with. He becomes her dream, so she marries him and follows him down into the everglades. For a while it is truly bliss between the couple. He is a good and loving husband to her, who finally treats her well. They live well for a while, then the young couple get news of a hurricane. They decide not to leave their home, but once the hurricane strikes, they run east. Once they run, Jaine and Tea Cake get swept up in the storm, and when they are hanging on for dear life, a dog gets stuck with them, which attacks Jaine before Tea Cake rescues her and gets bitten on the face by the dog. Nothing much happens for a bit, until one day Tea Cake gets a bad headache and when he goes to drink water, he finds he can’t. After trying a couple more times, Jaine goes to fetch a doctor, who quietly tells her that it's too late for Tea Cake, that it was rabies and if they had caught it earlier it wouldn’t have been a problem. Jaine decides to stick it out with her husband and decides not to take him to a hospital and the doctor sends for some medicine which should arrive the next day. She finds a 6-chamber pistol that she decides to remove 3 bullets from, just in case. So she goes to bed and wakes to find him freaking out about her leaving and pulls out the gun, and pulls the trigger twice before she shoots him, killing him. The doctor finds her there holding the body of the man she loved. However, she is arrested and charged for murder but is acquitted. So, she returns home alone, and after telling all this to her friend, goes to sleep.

Themes (That You Won't Find on SparkNotes) :

 Memories and Maturity: throughout the story, there are many instances of Jaine being presented with the same choice more than once. She does not make the same choice when presented with the same options. Instead having grown and changed, maturing in her choices. 

“What  wouldn’t’ I given to be twelve years younger so i could b’lieve him” “Ah done lived grandma’s way, now Ah means to live mine.”

The influence of Dreams:

Jaine spends the entire story dreaming, from one thing to another. She dreams of love, and chases those throughout the story, leading her from one choice to the next, marking the passage of time. The stages of her life are marked by her dreams, and somewhere along the way, she learns to let each of them go. Which shows a beautiful growth of character, and a sense of personal peace she doesn’t get til the end of the narrative.

" Janie's first dream was dead, so she became a woman" "one way or another that took the bloom off things"

Conquer the Georgia State Test (GMAS): Strategies for Student Success

The Georgia Milestones Assessment System (GMAS) is a series of standardized tests administered to students in grades 3-8 and high school. It measures student mastery of essential skills and knowledge in English Language Arts (ELA), Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies, aligned with the Georgia Standards of Excellence. While GMAS plays a significant role in evaluating student progress, preparing for it can be challenging for both students and parents. Let’s delve into these challenges and explore effective solutions.

Challenges of GMAS Preparation:

Test Anxiety: Standardized tests often create anxiety in students, impacting their performance.

Identifying Strengths and Weaknesses: Students may struggle to identify areas needing improvement without proper assessment or guidance.

Limited Practice Resources: Finding suitable practice materials and resources aligned with the latest GMAS standards can be difficult.

Time Management: Managing time effectively during the test can be challenging, especially for younger students.

Differentiated Learning Styles: Traditional test prep methods may not cater to all learning styles, hindering student engagement.

Solutions for Effective GMAS Preparation:

There are various strategies to address these challenges and ensure successful GMAS preparation for your child:

Understanding the Test: Familiarize yourself and your child with the GMAS format, content areas assessed, and the Georgia Standards of Excellence.

Practice Tests and Sample Questions: Utilize a high-quality online GMAS practice test and sample questions that mirror the actual GMAS format. This helps students become comfortable with the question types and timing.

Combating Test Anxiety: Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or meditation to manage test anxiety. Encourage a positive mindset and focus on the learning process rather than just achieving a high score.

Personalized Learning Resources: Explore resources like Lumos Learning’s GMAS practice tests, which offer adaptive technology that personalizes learning paths based on individual student needs, identifying areas requiring additional practice.

Time Management Strategies: Practice time management skills while taking practice tests. Develop a strategy to allocate time efficiently across different sections.

Cater to Different Learning Styles: Utilize a variety of study tools like flashcards, visual aids, and online games to cater to different learning styles and keep students engaged.

Open Communication: Maintain open communication with your child. Address their anxieties and encourage them to ask questions about the material or test format.

Additional Tips for Success:

Create a Dedicated Study Space: Establish a quiet and organized environment at home with minimal distractions. Set aside specific times for focused study sessions.

Parental Support and Encouragement: Be supportive of your child’s efforts and celebrate their progress. Encourage them to do their best and not get discouraged by setbacks.

Regular Communication with Teachers: Maintain open communication with your child’s teachers. Discuss areas needing improvement and seek feedback on your child’s progress. Teachers can provide additional guidance and resources tailored to your child’s specific needs.

By understanding the challenges, implementing these solutions, and utilizing effective resources like Lumos Learning’s GMAS practice tests, you can equip your child with the confidence and skills they need to succeed on the GMAS.

A slingshot is an anachronism in modern warfare.

Jo’s painting of 18th-century Japan was perfect, except for one anachronism—a turbo-charged racing car.

Like many episodes of Doctor Who, “Dinosaurs on a Spaceship” has its share of anachronisms, such as dinosaurs on a spaceship. (Duh.)
