6th grade Study Skills update:

Since the first day the class has worked on getting assignments into their planners.
We review all homework assignments during planners at the end of the day.
            -Assignments should be recorded on the date they are due.
            -Planner should be readable and the assignment understood.
            -Break down longer assignments. (exp. dividing reading into daily chunks)

In the past week the class has worked on organizing their notebooks.
-No loose papers and every paper should have a specific place it lives.
-All papers should have their name and date on it.

In the last two days we have begun to work on time management.
            -Record extra curricular activities and familial occasions in planner
            -Look ahead and plan how a longer assignment will be completed.
