Organization Systems: Get Organized!

## Part 1: Your Binder System
Think about how you organize your schoolwork. Do you use a physical binder, a digital folder, or something else? Answer the questions below to help you create or improve your system.

1. What subjects do you have that need to be organized? List them all out.




2. If you use a physical binder, how many sections will you need? What will you label each section? If you use a digital system, what will be your main folders or categories?




3. What are two benefits of having a well-organized binder or digital system?




## Part 2: Planner Power-Up
A planner helps you keep track of your homework, projects, and important dates. Let's think about how you can use one effectively.

1. What kinds of things should you write in your planner?




2. How often should you check your planner? Why is it important to check it regularly?




3. Imagine you have a big project due next Friday. How could you use your planner today to help you prepare?




## Part 3: Folder Fun!
Folders are great for keeping papers and digital files tidy. Whether it's a physical folder or a digital one, the idea is the same: give everything a home!

1. Besides subjects, what other types of papers or digital files might you need to organize (e.g., permission slips, club information, unfinished work)?




2. Describe a time when you couldn't find an important paper or file. How did it make you feel? How could better folder organization have helped?




3. What is one new idea you have for organizing your physical or digital folders after thinking about these questions?
