My Project

As an educator I want to intentionally employ varied organizational tools to ensure my students are keeping their materials organized throughout the academic year. My students will in turn demonstrate proficiency concerning chosen organizational tools and the overall organizational system.

I want my students to understand the importance of having an organizational system and its relationship to academic success.

I will utilize activity ideas that are intended to foster accountability and guide feedback with organizational systems. My students will become skilled in using a physical and/or digital tools to organize assignments and tasks which is foundational to building organizational systems. As the students begin to become independent with their organizational systems, I will monitor their development and provide constructive feedback in an intentional and consistent way.

I will use the organizational checks as occasionally be a summative assessment, but will formatively assess to ensure continuous usage and growth of this skill.
