Agendas

• Agendas are like appointment calendars for kids.
• They help kids keep track of their responsibilities at their job (school).
• Agenda books make great communication tools for parents/teachers, too.
• The most important thing about agendas is to have the child use them:
     1. Students must write down their assignments when they are assigned with a notation of when they are due
     2. Students should also check off their assignments when completed (and put them in their “Take Home” folder which should then go into the backpack with the agenda book!)
• Check the agenda book daily—some teachers require the parents to sign it.
• The more attention you give the agenda, chances are your child will, too.

Does your child use an agenda book?  Leave me a comment below.
