Lesson Plan
Tidy Treasure Hunt Lesson Plan
Students will learn to organize their desks, backpacks, and workspaces by completing a guided “Tidy Treasure Hunt,” using checklists and worksheets to identify and sort materials. They’ll practice checking off items, sorting with bins, and reflecting on improvements.
Early organization skills help students focus, reduce stress, and locate materials quickly, laying the foundation for success across subjects by establishing good habits now.
