How to keep awake in class

Kenya: This is one of the hottest terms on the school calendar and many students find themselves struggling to keep their eyes open even as teachers instruct them. Students in drama club, especially have trouble because of late-night rehearsals. They find themselves nodding off uncontrollably, especially during afternoon classes.

Sleeping is never an option when you are in class. If you are unwell, you are not supposed to be in class in the first place. The disadvantage of sleeping in class is that you miss out on what the other students are learning. It also puts you in your teacher’s bad books.
