BRVGS held a first-ever student and parent study skills session on July 25. We had a great turnout as BRVGS staff and teachers talked about "Big-Picture" planning, how to craft a study plan, skills for reading, test preparation and writing, as well as info on the psychological side of high-stakes academics. The Google Slide presentation, with live links to resources, can be found by clicking on "BRVGS Study Skills Presentation"
In addition, we have recorded a voice-over version of that presentation, broken down in modules that can be accessed by clicking on their titles below:
- Introduction and Goal-Setting
- Crafting a Study Plan
- Checklists and Online Learning
- Reading, Test Prep and Writing
- The Psychology of Academics
Students and parents are invited to review the above materials, and are recommended to craft a Parent/Student Study Plan together. A copy of a Study Plan Template can be found be clicking on BRVGS Parent/Student Study Plan.
BRVGS plans to offer more parent information sessions in the upcoming year. Please contact BRVGS Director Marc Carraway at mcarraway@brvgs.k12.va.us with any questions or comments, and thanks to everyone who came out for the session on the 25th.
