While I was visiting classrooms on Friday I became excited (you know it doesn't take much to excite me) while reviewing student planners. I saw students' who had everything listed in their planners from hair appointments to birthday parties. After viewing several I said to a student, " I love it when you guys write everything in your planner." She kind of looked at me with bright eyes and I said I'm serious. She gave a sigh of relief. I told her, along with giving them a place to keep up with assignments or communicate with parents, planners should help them add order to their lives.
As we prepare for 2008, how many of us could use a few organizational tips? For organizational tips for each facet of your life, check out Organizing your life the easy way. Sometimes we have a tough time helping the students organize their notebooks because we've not figured out how to keep our notebooks organized. This site is all about home, but if you really want true tips, google search "organizing your life" and get strategies that work anywhere.
As I am committing yet again to running more often, and making certain I eat healthy, I am also resigning myself to a more organized life. Believe it or not, I am quite organized, but I could do better and I am certain I have a few who could take the plunge with me. JUMP IN!!
