I hope to provide planners for every 6th grader at our school (60 students in total). Our 6th graders are in the process of establishing good study habits and are working on writing down the night's homework. But without planners, many write assignments down in one of their notebooks, or on a stray piece of paper, and come back to school saying that the assignment got lost in the craziness of their backpack. With the help of individual planners, our students can get in the habit of being accountable for their own learning, and gain the tools they need to succeed in the real world. Once they receive the planners, we'll go over as a class how to copy down assignments so that the assignment and the deadline are clear. I'll also do planner checks at the end of each day to ensure that each students knows what they're responsible for having the next day. With the help of these organizational tools, I know our students will be unstoppable! The products I've selected are nothing fancy, but having a dedicated space to record homework will be invaluable for students' learning and organization. I've seen firsthand the effect that proper tools can have on learning. Since providing each student with separate notebooks for each class, they've been able to keep their notes more organized, and will often refer back to them during class discussions. I hope that the planners can be a tool for them to further their own education, and take responsibility for their assignments and growth. The habits they establish in middle school can set them up for success in high school and beyond!
