Back to School

It’s time to start planning for a new school year. Good planning can prevent lost paperwork, late assignments, and the chaos of looking for misplaced homework.

Designate a spot for:
1. Papers
*For parents to sign/fill out and return to school.
*To recycle (Keeping all papers for a few weeks will prevent assignments from accidentally being thrown away.)
*To keep (Limit this to a few special pieces.)
2. Homework
3. Backpacks
4. Library books

Allocate an area for doing homework. Stock the area with needed supplies: pencils, pencil sharpener, eraser, paper, glue, crayons, dictionary, calculator, etc.

Developing the routine of putting all school items in their assigned spots can help the school year go more smoothly.
