Being asked to work for too long

WHAT CAN WE DO?
In today’s fast paced world, the vast majority of the population have poor levels of concentration and are unable to sustain concentration for long periods. The government’s Literacy and Numeracy strategies take this into account by suggesting a classroom model broken into fifteen or twenty minute slices. While this is not a practical option for all lessons, it may be possible to include this model in some lessons.
SO
Vary the pace of lessons By doing this pupils will not be sure what is coming next, they will be more stimulated, less bored and will achieve more.
