I write down my progress, but still don’t know how far I’ve come.
The number of pages I’ve studied keeps growing, but when I open the book a few days later, I sometimes can’t remember what I managed to do.
Scenes
- I read fewer pages, but... — As raindrops spread across the window in the evening, only the pages I read today add up on my progress chart.
- Nothing stays with me — I try to write down what I remember beside the page number, but my pencil stops at the blank.
- Pages Finished Aren’t Enough — Progress shows how much you read, but leaves no clue to check what you remember.
- Add Just One Line — Beside the pages you read today, write one word you remember or one place to review.
- I Know Where to Start Tomorrow — When page numbers and a short note sit together on your progress chart, it takes less time to decide what to study next.
