Unfortunately, not all lessons or couples are interesting and educational. If the teacher or instructor could not interest you in his subject, then there is only one thing to do - sit your pants, killing time in the lesson. Lazy pupils and students have come up with many ways to kill time, from classic tic-tac-toe to surfing social media.
Classical methods
Arrange an artillery fire with paper balls. Tear an unnecessary piece of paper into small pieces and roll balls out of pieces of paper. Pull the rod out of the handle and load the ball into it. Flip the narrow part towards you and blow sharply into the hole, aiming at a friend. The comrade will surely be pleasantly surprised and immediately begin to prepare the same weapon.
If your deskmate is a person of the opposite sex, turn to him (her) and propose your hand and heart. Make a proposal with a serious expression on your face and watch the reaction. You can assume that you are guaranteed a few minutes of fun.
Make your own sundial. To create a sundial, you will need a piece of paper, a pencil, and an eraser. Break the eraser in half, make a hole in one of the halves with your fingernail, and insert a pencil into that hole. Place a piece of paper in a sunny spot and place the structure on top of it. Draw a dial on a piece of paper and enjoy the look of your own sundial.
Create a puzzle. Draw a tunnel like a computer game. Set a task for the hero: get out of numerous traps, traps and dead ends. After you draw and go through all the levels, offer a puzzle to your neighbor and give him the opportunity to try his hand.
Learn the art of origami. The main advantage of origami is that to create paper figures you need to have only a little paper in stock, your own skill and imagination. Prepare in advance: download some interesting instruction sheets from the Internet and bring them to the lesson. You will not notice how time flies by.
Modern methods
Give yourself a new nickname. A person simply must have his own nickname. During the lesson, jot down new ideas on a piece of paper, and then choose the best option. You can share your ideas with a neighbor and ask him for advice.
If you've managed to discreetly pair your headphones to your phone, you're in luck. Sit quietly and listen to whatever you want: music, a chapter from a textbook with an assignment for tomorrow, an audiobook. The main thing is to have time to adequately respond to the teacher's words, not to shake your head to the beat of the music and to make an intelligent expression on your face.
Place your tablet or e-reader on your lap and enjoy reading. You are unlikely to be able to play the game, but you may be able to read it. From this point of view, high desks in university classrooms are especially beneficial. As a last resort, you can always say that you have found additional materials for the lesson. The teacher will be pleased.
