BIOLOGY STUDENTS

LOOK: 

BIONINJA. It’s as cool as it sounds. BioNinja is a compilation of biology resources (specifically for IB) including outlines, videos, and powerpoints. Awesome. My favorite part, however, are the quick reference sheets! They are perfect for reviewing. 

To get to the reference sheets, click “Additional Resources” (as seen above) 

And then click the “Biology Quick Reference Guides” (or click here) 

and it will open a complete list of EVERYTHING YOU WILL NEED TO KNOW FOR THE BIOLOGY TEST. (HL and SL!) How cool is this????? 

Each topic is linked to a one page reference sheet! 

I’M OFFICIALLY OBSESSED WITH THESE. I’m currently rewriting them all to study for next year! If you don’t want to rewrite them, it would also be awesome to have them printed out in your binder or folder to study from!

today i just realized… i’m starting school next week! i know a lot of people have already started and others still have a little while to wait, but either way i thought i’d put together a little thing to get you all jazzed for the new school year because for some reason, i’m not really feelin’ it.

week(s) before you start school:

make a de-stress box!!

i plan on making a post about this within the week but… here are a few basic tips until then.

use a card board box- shoe boxes work best

include things that help you calm down when you’re upset/stressed

CD’s, special notes, soft pieces of fabric, face masks, temporary tattoos, maybe even a movie.

it’s also pretty calming to decorate the outside of your box with stickers, a collage, or just with paints and markers.

start a journal (or a bullet journal if you’re into it)

do some general research on new study methods

start fixing up your sleeping schedule

exercise 2x a week, then carry your new habit into the school year (even if you have a gym class! exercising on your own is soooo important)

(obviously) go school supply shopping!!! (make sure you only get general items though, teachers can sometimes be specific about what they want you to have for their class.)

diy your school supplies. it’s always super fun to buy cheap supplies and then customize them. make covers for your notebooks, tape or paint your pencils, or tie-dye your pencil bag.

the day before:

sleep in, it’s your last day of freedom

pack your backpack (if you haven’t already)

use a face mask

do some yoga

relax. it’s all gonna be great

go to sleep early

the first day

meet your teachers!

reconnect with your friends

ask questions

supplies

the syllabus (or if there isn’t one, ask for a general over view. most likely (if you’re in high school) they’ll talk a lot about expectations, but you should have time at the end of each class to talk

bring a water bottle. if you think you’ll be nervous (i know i will), sucking/chewing on a straw and carrying a bottle or just something to hold on to will help

the weekend after:

use your de-stress box!

do some yoga. it will help, i promise

don’t feel pressured to hang with friends right off the bat- jumping back into being social everyday from being social once a week (or less), (like me) can be a little daunting. take time for yourself.

read something, books can be a great way to wind down

your teachers (if you’re in high school) probably haven’t given out any assignments. if anything, maybe some in-class work, but nothing too awfully important. use this “free” time to maybe do some general research for topics at your teachers mentioned would be covered. this can be a great way to understand things better when you go more in depth in class

documentaries are great ways to learn about a topic without getting too awfully intense.

go school supply shopping again!! now buy the things your teachers request you have for their classes. these things can include fancy calculators, binders of a certain size, etc.

Hi, everyone!! I’ve had a studyblr for about a week now and have already met so many kind, supportive people. I couldn’t be more thankful. That said, I really wanted to give back to such an amazing community! So here’s my first printable for you! 

It includes:

a 5AM-10PM schedule (for my early hustlers)

‘Top 3 Priorities’ + ‘Can Wait’ categories

a ‘To-Do’ list

Daily Goals, Notes, Doodles

a water tracker (stay hydrated, friends!)

10 Good Things (reflect back on your day and jot down the little things that made you happy even if your day wasn’t the greatest)

They’re available for download in PDF and PNG formats + in pink, blue, yellow, and white! I’ve also made a grid and grid-less version!

Please tag me with #arystudies or mention me if you use these!! I’d love to see them in action. :’) I’m also really curious to see what you all think of them, so please let me know!! 

Happy studying!
