Tip of the Day - Time Management

You know that nifty little red agenda we gave you on the first day of school? Use it! After scrolling through all of the Student Handbook information, there are several different calendars. The first is by month. The second, by week.

Use your monthly calendar to:

• Keep track of evening events, like club meetings, presentations, or sporting events
• List birthdays or anniversaries
• Note days off of school
• List due of dates of large assignments - final exams, research papers, presentations, etc.
  

Use your weekly calendar to:

• Keep track of homework assignments
• Plan out big projects - i.e. write pages 1-3 of English research paper on Monday, pages 4-6 on Tuesday, etc.
• Make a "to do" list for the "others" in life - buy a birthday card, call your grandma, bring in lunch money, etc.

Once you get used to writing things down, you will develop a habit. Keep the lists going on paper so that you do not have to remember them in your head.
