How Do You Be Organized In School?
• Get a binder. You can choose binders with zippers, if you worry about papers falling out, or without zippers, since they can be opened and closed more quickly. Also, have a folder that has two pockets that can be your homework folder. One side for papers that you need to take home and work on, and the other side for the work that you have completed and need turn in the next day. This makes it easier to know what homework you have to turn in or not. Also on top of papers, put the date it is due on the top. • Get any supplies that you may need, but don’t have. Being prepared is important. Even if that certain item wasn’t on the supplies list, you should get it if you really feel you need it. Get anything you may need. As they say, “better safe, than sorry.” Good things you might need: • Number 2 Pencils/ Mechanical Pencils with Lead • Tabs to mark pages • Folders & Binders • Erasers • Paper Clips • Mini Stapler/Stapler refills/Staple remover • Planner • Notebooks/Composition Books • Or
