The Organized Student

Recently I had the pleasure of working with a 13 year old junior high student. The goal was to create a more organized backpack and a better system for getting assignments turned in. I turned to The Organized Student by Donna Goldberg for guidance.



I was impressed by this book and actually think that all parents and students should check it out! Your student will learn lessons early that will last a lifetime.



It was interesting and fun for me to read because I believe that organizing principles are universal, such as labeling everything and having a system. However, it was still very fun and interesting to see how to apply those SPECIFICALLY to backpacks and binders and get some helpful tips that I may or may not thought of on my own.

  1. A great idea to read before students head to middle school, they really need good organizational skills when they leave elementary school!

  2. I wonder if programs like Kumon, which is located near our office, would be interested in learning about your services? I would be happy to find out. Perhaps an introduction?!
