Intertwined in the world of a teacher are organization, productivity and classroom management. The glue that holds all this together is the teachers\u2019 ability to organize themselves. Most of us understand the value of planning and preparation. The key is to find what works for you and helps your students succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Few Free Tips:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


1. Do the work \u2013 preparation maximizes instructional time<\/strong>
We all know someone who gets to work early, chats, has coffee, spins around and never gets their work pile to diminish. Being busy is not necessarily being productive. The goal is a planned, sequential order. Logically, this should relate to skill development at the students\u2019 instructional level.

2. Don\u2019t sit at your desk or computer \u2013 provide planned tasks with clear and precise instructions<\/strong>
Consequently, come up with what you are going to work on for the day. Have the materials needed ready before you begin the classroom day. Group similar tasks and schedule certain times during the day to knock them out. Consistency is the key to any habit. Above all, as the organized leader, you are developing life habits with your students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.  Number 2 leads us to tangents \u2013 <\/em>minimize disruptions like personal devices and unnecessary chatter \u2013 re-engage students<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Distractions from where you need to be wastes time and productivity \u2013 stay on track!    Turn off distracting technology or utilize it in the lessons.  Try and anticipate disruptions. Adapt your classroom standards, connections and arrangement strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.  What is your energy level and what is the students?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deep thinking needs to be saved for when all are fresh.  No matter how busy you are, after a certain amount of time, fatigue sets in. Mental and physical effectiveness is impaired.  Schedule a refresh break. Consider light tasks to do when you are tired, or distractions make it hard to concentrate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.  Don\u2019t rely on your memory<\/strong> – use the tools available<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insanely, trying to rely on memory when we have so much to accomplish leads to something getting lost.  Human memory is unreliable when it comes to details.  Write it down \u2013 we have our digital tools –  phones, tablets, laptops and you can still use paper!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Research shows \u2013 don\u2019t multitask<\/strong>
Multitaskers have more trouble tuning out distractions. Research shows our brains cannot switch efficiently between 2 tasks. Reaction time slows for both. Therefore, break tasks into pieces. Use brain breaks and other tools to keep learning interactive. For example, online lessons should include complex thinking and interactive activities. These actions will direct learners\u2019 attention toward the tasks. Ask relevant questions throughout the lesson to keep students\u2019 attention focused. To clarify, the questions should be constructed so the learners are able to answer if they are following along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Free Glue<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In conclusion, organization isn\u2019t about striving for perfection, but can lead to more daily satisfaction and less stress for the teacher. Consequently, it can lead to engaged and productive students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
