Will the old saying
`Early to bed, Early to rise,
Makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise,’
apply to progress in the eleven plus?
Larry Ferlazzo has
gathered a collection of thoughts and ideas on sleep from a variety of web
sites.
Could some of our eleven plus children do better on papers and exercises - and in the examination if they had more sleep?
Perhaps some parents may be interested in maintaining a little diary - looking at the relationship between sleep and academic success?
My book by Webb on `Sleep: An Experimental Approach' (1968) looked at sleep in a variety of ways. You can even get a copy of this book on Amazon! I sometimes used to wonder if Wilse B. Webb did not have a wonderful life's work - just watching people sleep!
`Early to bed, Early to rise,
Helps an Eleven Plus child do well.’
