Answer 1

Tips on how to be organized:

** Categorize! Organize your stuff in groups!**

- put the utensils that use the *most* in a pencil bag that you can (and will) carry with you everywhere -- in mine I have two black pens, two red pens, a mechanical pencil, a regular pencil, my favorite eraser, and my calculator

- put extra/backup writing utensils in a different pencil bag that you keep in your backpack or locker -- I have a lot of extra black and red pens, more pencils, more erasers, and extra pencil lead kept in my backpack just in case I lose or run out of something

- use ONE notebook PER subject (if the teacher wants you to have one) instead of mixing a bunch of subjects into just one notebook; and color-coordinate them! if they're all different colors, you'll have an easier time of grabbing the right one in a hurry

- use ONE folder PER subject (whether your teacher tells you to have one or not!) instead of putting all of your papers into one folder; this way, none of your work will get mixed up, and it's a lot easier to find a particular paper that you're looking for; color-coordinate these also, and label them by subject!

- have a TAKE-HOME folder: this is one that you put your *homework* inside of -- all of your subjects can go in here; in the left pocket, put homework that you need to do; in the right pocket, put the homework that you completed that needs to be turned in

(- the other folders are for the papers that you do not need to do for homework and do not need to turn in to your teacher -- save EVERY paper that you get back, and you won't lose anything!)

**Last Tip!** Put your name and the date on everything you get. That way, if you forgot to turn in something, and the teacher asks for it, you can go right to the correct folder and find it according to the date. Fast and simple. Good luck!
