Element 2 – Hourly Schedule

How about turning to the Study Skills Tips in your favorite student planner. About paragraph 3 or so you will see a sentence that goes something like this… “Be sure to block off time in your schedule for study time and breaks…” Hmm…now what schedule would that be in? Obviously not the one in your “PLANNER” because it doesn’t have one. And if it does have a partial day schedule, your 15 sq. inches of assignment space just went down to about 9 sq. inches.

Student’s lives start early and go late. The AgenDUH study skills student planner has a 15-hour schedule to mirror the schedule of real life students. They appreciate seeing their day laid out in front of them. How else are they going to learn about self management unless they can get a grip on the hours in the day.

Middle and High School students have 14 – 16 hour days.  They need to start learning now how to plan their day like an adult.  Just like we don’t turn them loose in college not knowing how to balance a check book, the same thing applies for planning.  And they don’t figure this out in a class.  It needs to become a discipline that is developed and refined over time.

The AgenDuh planner does exactly this.
