Any suggestions for middle school student planners to help students stay organized and remember to complete assignments? Is best to purchase a planner or organize a binder?

This age group needs constant reminders, consistency, and follow through. They are just like a plant, depending on the direction they are growing, can tell so much about how rooted they are in the soil. Checking and writing in an agenda book daily should be a must. There are a lot causes and effects in the long term due to how the foundation is laid.

I like the Student Planner from Payne Publishing. It has lines for you to write daily assignments with due dates and check them off when complete. It also has a monthly calendar you can write on.

Both. A calendar to write the assignments and the binder to keeping them organized

We used Google Suite/Chromebook apps exclusively this year. The apps integrate organization.

I am not sure what protocols will be in place Fall 2021 (there were no materials handled due to Covid this past year). We also adopted eHall passes.

I walk my students through creating a digital planner in Google docs at the beginning of each year. We then share it with their parents/guardians, case managers, etc. It never gets lost or forgot at home and anyone included in the doc can make updates as needed. Works out great!

Our school supplies all students with planners. I also post all assignments on googleclassroom everyday.

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before. Curious on whether people are thinking about the ethics of their exit company when deciding to move?

My client wants both parties to list assets & liabilities as an exhibit to their prenup without values, but waive the right to know the actual valuation of those in the prenup itself. My initial thought is this is a terrible idea & would probably make the prenup easily voidable since a main requirement for a prenup is for both to understand the nature and value of the other’s assets. I will research in my jurisdiction to confirm, but has anyone ever heard of/done this? Thoughts?

I feel like I'm at my wits end. I teach self-contained classes and according to the ISBE website my classes shouldn't be more than 8 students unless I have an aide - then it can be 10.

Is anybody else out there going through illegal class sizes for self-contained? How are you dealing? Maybe a vent session is in order.

I love my job in special education, the job may bring quite a bit of stress and exhaustion but nothing compares to the stress of the related service team. OT, PT, speech, BCBA, social worker, etc etc is really what’s killing me this year. It is 23 days into the school year and the team members all make different plans and as a result, nothing is being accomplished. And if paraprofessionals follow ie what OT says but not PT, it cause so much unnecessary conflict!
