What Kids Should Know Before Leaving Home

<p>Dizzymom, what I do to keep myself organized involves a big calendar - the kind you can get at staples - and lots of post it notes in different colors, especially little ones. I put a post-it with a note on the due-date for each class assignment. I write down appointments out of the ordinary on the calendar. I also use post-its to keep track of big projects coming up and little things to keep myself organized. That way, when I write the paper, I can pull of the note, crumple (or tear ;) ) it up, and throw it in the garbage.</p>
