Summarize the following:
Healthy and not greasy or messy snacks are important for keeping everyone focused and on task. So that no one person feels burdened by always having to provide the snacks, task the group leaders of each session to bring food and drink. Opt for finger foods with a lot of protein and not a lot of grease. Choose things like fruits, veggies, nuts, cheese, hummus, or pretzels. Pizza works in a pinch for a late-night study sessions, but remember it's greasy and probably going to make you feel full and tired after eating it, instead of alert and focused. The group leaders should be tasked with making and distributing a plan for each study session. It can be as detailed as the leader needs it to be to keep everyone on track. What is important is that everyone in the group has a rough outline for exactly what will be covered and in what order. This will help keep everyone on task because they will know what they need to cover. The agenda should begin with the hardest material to get that out of the way while everyone's brain is still alert and awake. The structure should be determined by the group leaders and whatever they think makes the most sense for covering the topics of the day. Structure largely depends on the class. For a math class, you might spend on homework problems and on concepts, but for a history class, you'd probably spend most of your time discussing main ideas. If your study session is any longer than 45 minutes, you definitely want to schedule in breaks for stretching, using the restroom, checking your phone, or just chatting. Giving intermittent breaks keeps everyone on task when they should be working because they know there is a time coming when they can step away. The break schedule should be included in the agenda for the day. Decide together as a group what you think works best. Some people like to work for 25 minutes and then take a break for 5 minutes. Others prefer to work longer sessions and take longer breaks. It doesn't really matter as long as everyone agrees. Encourage your group leaders to be creative with how they conduct the studying time. There are many websites available with ideas for effective studying strategies. Try them out and see what works best for your group. People learn differently. Some are visual learners, some learning by writing, and some learn best by teaching others. Since your group will be made up of diverse individuals, be willing to try out different methods so that everyone can benefit. Some proven study methods are teaching each other the materials, having debates, watching and discussing film clips, playing trivia games, and quizzing one another. Take at least 10 minutes at the end of each study session to go over the main ideas again. Also, leave time for anyone in the group to ask questions on any material they still don't understand. Even if you think you know the material well, you will benefit from hearing it again or answering questions of your group members.

summary: Have healthy snacks and drinks available to help everyone focus. Create an agenda for each session and stick to it. Take breaks often so that no one feels burned out. Experiment with different study methods to maximize learning. Review the material at the end of each session.

Summarize the following:
Get a copy of the uniform policy and/or dress code and read it carefully. It's super important to be respectful of your school's uniform policy to avoid getting into trouble. Look for loopholes -- you may have to wear a uniform, but the code may not say anything about wearing only your uniform. For instance, you may be able to add a jacket, scarf, hat, buttons or pins, etc. When adding items to your uniform, make sure that they still conform to the dress code. For example, you may be able to wear a jacket, as long as it is solid-colored. If possible, choose separates, like sweaters and skirts, in multiple sizes or lengths. This will give you more variety to choose from when getting dressed for school. For example: If you can choose the length of your skirt, get one that's shorter and one that's longer. Pair the longer skirt with flats and a shorter skirt with high-heeled boots. If you are allowed to choose the length of your socks, alternate between crew and knee-high socks. Some schools offer a variety of sweaters, cardigans, vests, and sweatshirts. Consider choosing 2 or 3 different items so that you aren't wearing the same thing every day. In some cases, you may have a choice between colors. For example, if your school colors are maroon and navy, you may be able to choose between those colors when picking a sweater for your uniform. Rather than making a choice, get both if your budget (or your parents' budget) allows. That way you can have some options when getting ready. For example, if your school offers both maroon and navy cardigans, get both! Wear the maroon cardigan one day, and the navy one the next! Keep patterns in mind. Some schools offer both plaid and solid-colored skirts. This will allow you to create more combinations and add some variety to your wardrobe. You may have the option to choose between several cuts of an item, such as pants. Rather than opting for the most basic choices, pick a cut that flatters your body. Go for a flare if that appeals to you, or choose boot-cut or baggy pants. You can even get a couple of each style so you'll be able to make a choice in the morning. Skirts also come in different styles. A skirt with pleats may not flatter you at all, but a skirt with a flat front and darts may. When you find a cut that flatters you, stick with it. Try to find as many lengths, colors, and patterns in that cut. If you have to wear basic items, avoid buying them from the school when possible. Instead, shop around to find items that fit the rules while still being unique. For example, pick a collared white shirt with three-quarter length sleeves, ruched sides, or pretty buttons instead of the standard collared white shirt the rest of your classmates will have. Instead of laying your collar flat like your classmates do, pop your collar up. It will make you stand out -- at least until everyone starts copying your look! You could even wear a brightly-colored collared shirt underneath your uniform and pop both collars for a unique look. If you don't like popping your collar, consider leaving the top 1 to 2 buttons open. Double-check with your school if this is allowed first, however! Not only will a jacket keep you warm, it can show you personality, too. You can choose from a bomber jacket, peacoat, trench, and more. Pick a rain coat in a fun pattern or choose a coat that's tailored to show off your figure. If you don't like to wear jackets, try sweaters or cardigans. Sweater vests are also a great option! Double-check with your school's dress code first. They may only allow non-uniform jackets as long as they contain the school colors.
summary: Look for loopholes in your school's dress code. Choose items in varying sizes or lengths. Get multiple colors. Pick a cut that flatters your body. Choose basics with fun details. Pop your collar. Add a unique jacket.
