Beat the Boredom

A guide to making schoolwork more interesting.

Pomodoro Timer

25:00

Focus time!

Work for 25 minutes, then take a 5-minute break. Repeat!

📝 Break It Down

Instead of one huge assignment, break it into smaller, manageable chunks. Focusing on one small part makes it feel less overwhelming and easier to start.

💡 Ask Questions

Actively listen to find a question to ask your teacher or a classmate. This gives your brain a job to do and makes the material more personal and engaging.

✍️ Doodle or Summarize

Take notes in a fun way, like with doodles or by rewriting key ideas in your own words. This keeps your hands busy and your mind engaged with the content.

🏆 Gamify It

Challenge yourself! Can you finish this paragraph before the timer rings? Or, reward yourself with a small break after completing a difficult problem.
