Organization: Class Assignments

Check your Google Classrooms for assignments and due dates and write them in to your planner

Ideas:

  • For tests, projects, and big assignments: First put in the deadline, then plan backwards how you’ll break down the work you need to do.
  • Collaborate with your classmates on how track and meet assignment and project deadlines.
  • Consider forming study groups for classes where you might need extra help, or where you can give someone else help.
  • Try setting personal or academic goals in your planner. What can you start with and what do you want to accomplish by the end of the year?
