How can students develop organizational skills for school, work and life? While studying and understanding content is important, gaining organizational skills is another learning opportunity. The Recommended Reading "teaches the skills for success in school and beyond" and includes tools for improving student performance and confidence. This month's video on division with fractions is example-based (rather than just procedural) for better organization of thinking and heightened understanding. |

Organized Student book web site
This book can help all students but will especially resonate with middle schoolers (and their parents and teachers) who are transitioning from a one teacher/one room experience to the complexity of multiple instructors/locations. It will also benefit any student who would like to be better organized, successful and confident. The book includes many practical tips such as Poly Envelopes as an inexpensive and lightweight tool for document collection so homework makes it home! The book includes a logistics chapter on the physical setting for homework and discusses the pros and cons of a stationary desk vs. a portable office. |
