Bullet Journal Club: Weekly Set Up
Class experience
In this ongoing class, students will create and maintain a bullet journal. Research has shown that having a group for motivation and accountability is the best way to maintain a habit. A bullet journal is a blank dot gridded book where you can design an open gateway to a world of endless possibilities with no limitations on functionality or design.

Students will learn how to create and maintain a new habit through group motivation and accountability checks. They will keep a bullet journal for the year, a lifelong practice that can help with time management, make and meet goals, stay on top of pending tasks, unpacking feelings, and encourage new things to learn, watch, read, or try in the future.
I have taught high school art for ten years and have a Master of Art Education.
