Organization

Organization
I recognize that organization can be a struggle for many. I try to organize myself and my teaching with the intention of helping the students develop good habits that can be transferred into high school and beyond. Here are some of the ways that I will encourage this in my class this year. Your support is appreciated.

Color Coding
LA-Blue
Math-Red
Science-Green
Social Studies-Orange
Christian Ethics-Yellow
Fine Arts-Purple

Name and date in the top right hand corner

Subject in the left hand corner

Number your pages

Use a day planner and calendar

Stay on top of due dates and assignments (check the class blog for major assignment due dates and dates to remember)

If you are absent. When you return...

Get the notes from a classmate

Check the Handout Binder for missed handouts

Hand in all assignments to the Hand-in Basket at the beginning of class to avoid late marks

Ask the teacher for more tips!


Note: Students are allowed and encouraged to use technology to support their learning and assist in organization. Students will be allowed to use laptops and ipods in class time only. As of right now they will not be permitted internet access.
