ORGANIZATION
Organization is the key to success. Organization helps us with time management and study skills. If we can find our notes, we can study them. If we bring home our homework due the next day, we have a fighting chance to complete it. This page will cover strategies for organization, suggested readings, and key terms.
Strategies & Tips
-
Maintain an organized homework binder. Check it every Monday or Friday to remove the papers that are completed and review the new assignments.
-
Keep a homework journal. Take it to every class to write down the assignments and their due dates. Bring it home with the homework binder. Review your homework journal every evening.
-
Maintain a planner at home of all the extracurricular activities and long-term assignments. Both parents and students will use this planner.
-
If you are very creative, do not multitask. Work on one assignment at a time from start to finish.
