Class Experience

This is a one-time discussion-based class. In class we will learn about making a list, planning ahead for long term activities and projects,  getting small amounts done daily instead of saving all our work until the last minute, the impact that our forgetfulness may have on others and motivating ourselves to do tough stuff we don't feel like doing.  The teacher will model several organizational and time management strategies.  These include Google Keep, Habitica, A tear-off planning sheet, and a Post-It note planner model.  Learners will brainstorm a list of fun activities that will hopefully allow your teen to identify something fun projects  that they would like to plan and execute.  They will choose one of these activities and use one of the planning techniques they learned to break it down into the manageable steps that will be necessary to make that project successful.

Families will receive a number of organizational templates to remind students of what we learned in class and give students strategies to use in the future.

****My Refund Policy****

One Time Class: Full refund upon request up to one week before the start of class.

Learning Goals

Students will leave the class with some new techniques to try to improve their study skills and organization. They will understand the importance of starting early in order to meet deadlines and breaking down a project into smaller, more manageable steps.

Other Details

Learning Needs
Class supports executive function development in neurodivergent learners including autistic learners as well as those with ADHD and anxiety. Templates are shared in PDF and Google Doc form to support learners with dyslexia and dysgraphia.
Parental Guidance
Although the strategies we cover in class will be applicable to all learners, and may of the examples used will be applicable to all students, there will be some examples used that are more applicable to the conventional school rather than homeschool setting.
