The focus of this time management class is taking purposeful actions and using time wisely to work towards goals.  I want learners to view time management as a tool, not a chore! Executive function skills are important in school and throughout life! 

Learners will receive a printable packet prior to the start of class.  This should be printed and available during the class sessions. We will use it for note taking and brainstorming. 

During the first class session, learners will first share what they already know about time management. We will discuss the benefits of having good time management and discuss the negative impact that procrastination can have on reaching our goals. I will discuss why it's important to start building good time management skills at a young age.  We will talk about planners, calendars and time management apps.

During the week between the two class sessions, learners will be asked to track how they spend their free time over a period of two days.

During the second class session, we'll discuss how the learners spent their time during the tracking period.  Learners will identify which actions used time wisely and which did not. Leaners will be asked to create a to-do list of tasks that could be done when they have free time.

If a class section has a small number of learners, I may supplement class sessions with additional time management topics.
