How to effectively kickstart your studies after Tet?

Finding an effective way to resume studying after the Lunar New Year holiday, ensuring that students can both review old knowledge and absorb new knowledge without feeling overwhelmed or stressed, is a concern for many students, teachers, and parents.

Don't put pressure on yourself to study.

Many school leaders and teachers view increased review of previous lessons as an effective measure, believing that it is crucial to resolutely put an end to the holiday-oriented, "party-loving" mindset among students.

Many teachers, right in the first lesson of the new year, did not hesitate to give a regular test or oral exam to a few students to immediately get them into good study habits.

This method may be effective with diligent, well-behaved students who fear poor grades, but it is often not very effective with stubborn or unmotivated students.

However, they all have one thing in common: the teachers created an unnecessary tense and stressful atmosphere right from the beginning of the year, significantly diminishing the students' enjoyment of learning.

Teachers can help students regain their joy of learning after the Lunar New Year holiday through relaxing activities on the first day of the year.

Start gently and appropriately.

Some teachers often organize very interesting lessons at the beginning of the school year. Some teachers give the whole class lucky money through a raffle, or give students meaningful wishes in red envelopes along with stickers, keychains, and cheerful badges... Some teachers even let students share their hopes for the new year regarding their studies, family, and friends.

After this approximately 15-minute New Year's greeting activity, the teacher begins the lesson with gentle questions, gradually helping students review previous lessons and move on to the new lesson in a relaxed and cheerful mood.

Some teachers give extra points for reviewing material and answering questions in new lessons, creating opportunities for every student to receive a few extra points for the upcoming test, fostering an enthusiastic learning atmosphere.

These gentle warm-up and review activities help boost students' learning momentum after the Lunar New Year holiday.

Creative and dynamic teachers also organize games for students to review knowledge, with prizes such as bonus points or small lucky money gifts, through games like crossword puzzles, picture matching, and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire…

Activities like these can help students quickly regain their enthusiasm for learning and find joy in coming to school on the first day of the new year.

I believe that building a happy school is not something far-fetched. The school administration and teachers should pay attention to the psychological well-being of their students, helping them find joy, passion for learning, and enthusiasm for school, especially after the long and enjoyable Tet holiday.
