I went to public school where we had 90 min class block schedule and I did fine. My feshman year in high school I switched to a private school where I have 45 min classes. I couldn't imagine goin back, it's so much better and easier to concentrate.

Get a pda or cell phone with a scheduler and program it to your classes and set an alarm.  It will ring at the begining and end of every class.

Not to sound like your mother, but if ur at school shouldn't the focus be on your studies? If your talking like in your free time such as lunch hour..then ok, any chat room on yahoo..

In the U.S. it will depend on the school district. A city may have more than one district. Average 8am-3:15pm Mo-Fr.\nEurope: Germany 8am-1:15pm Mo-Fr. France 8-12pm and a couple of afternoon hours and Wednesdays are free, but they go to school on Saturdays.\nSubjects get chosen, average, starting in 7th grade. Most are compulsory. I hope this was enough info.

Try art/music/theater day camps to keep them engaged.  Although they aren't specifically academic, they might be a chance to try something new in a lower-stakes environment.

That's quite a question! The typical day for me is pretty fun. I like to have a lot of humor in my class, so class discussions are the key to a happy day. No matter the subject, the kids and I find something to laugh about. \n\nNow on to your question. Here's what a typical day looks like for me, a third grade teacher in a private school:\n\n8-9 Reading. Students read as a whole group, small groups, or individually. We have a basal reader (textbook) with a story a week. Depending on the day we work on the same story in a different way.\n\n9-10 Math. Math meeting (calendar, skip counting, time, etc.), fact practice, lesson, individual practice.\n\nRecess!!! (my favorite)\n\n11:20-11:30 Language, writing. Using the same textbook as the reading, there are various activities to teach grammar, spelling, writing, etc.\n\n11:30 Specials: PE, music, computer\n\n12:00 Lunch\n\n12:45-1: Silent reading time with sharing after.\n\n1-1:30 Religion - taught by a nun.\n\n1:30 - 2:30 Science or social studies. Hands-on activities as much as possible. No textbooks.\n\nThen the kids leave and I'm free to grade more papers, plan more lessons, go to more meetings, use the restroom, call parents, have conferences, go to classes of my own....

Divide your time into blocks, much the way your day at school already is divided.  Have a block for homework, a block for dinner, a block for TV, etc.  It is up to you to stay on schedule.  There will be times when you will not have the time to use the TV block because you have too much work to do.  Likewise, there will be times when you have less homework and can use some of that time to play.  They key is to stay on schedule, everyday, even if you got off schedule the day before.  Good luck!

Actually, it depends on the child. But, the general rule of thumb is 8-10 hours. Most school age children need a good night's rest to do well in academics.

When I was still in highschool, I would get up at 6:30 and get a shower. I had to be there at 8:00 am. The first thing we did was set in homeroom for about 15 minutes while we listen to the daily announcements. Then we would go to our first period class, which I think was just a study hall for me. Then I had Japanese Cultures during my second period class. Third period I had Physical Education. Fourth was Art class. Our fifth period was another study hall because the younger kids had lunch this period and we got to go during sixth period. 7th period was when I had English class. Another study hall during eight period, I wasn't really that busy my senior year. 9th period I had Geography but nobody really took it seriously so it was more like a goof off class. Then 10th period we had health class. We left school everyday at approximately 3:15 pm. That was my typical day at school my senior year.

Get on a schedule.  Monday thru Friday, make a set plan for studying/working/reading homework.  If you have Math, English, Creative Writing for example, divide it like this:\nAfter school:  Monday - 45 min of math,Break: 15 min.  45 min of English, Break: 15min.  45 min. of Creative Writing, Break: 15 min. DO THIS EVERYDAY.  Consistency is the key, and having a schedule will help.  Of course, if you have extra curricular activities, stick in those.  You won't be a nerd.
