Lesson Plan
Tidy Time Tools Lesson Plan
Students will learn three simple strategies—using trays, color-coded labels, and a visual checklist—to organize their workspace and materials independently by the end of a 30-minute one-on-one session.
Strong organizational skills help students focus, complete tasks confidently, and reduce lost materials. Early practice builds routines that transfer to all classroom work.
