The Middle School Minute

Tools for Organization

Multiple teachers, multiple classes, and multiple expectations mean that organization is an essential skill for middle school scholars. Help your scholar to use these tools:

1. An agenda. Writing down all assignments, due dates, and test dates in one place helps your scholar stay on track.
2. To-do lists. Help your scholar to list tasks to complete each day, week, month, etc.
3. Sticky notes. Your scholar can use them to remind them of items with different levels of importance.

Academy Giving
