Why is time management something that is so useful for students as they get older and older?
It helps us accomplish more and reduce stress! As students get older, the academic demands and rigor increases which means that you will have less time to get more done and time management will help you stay on top of everything be successful!
What is working memory?

Working Memory is when we hold of 'juggle' information in our mind and manipulate that information.

There are two types of clocks that can help us develop a knowledge of time - what are they and describe them.

We get to listen to both in order for our day to be most successful!

Give me an example.
Long term memory is the storage house of the brain - important information is stored there for long periods of time.
Example: home address, parents phone #, lyrics to your favorite song

What is one way you can make the organizing and cleaning process more fun?
Do it with friends! Make it a scheduled thing, first of each month we all have a study date and we clean our binders and maybe get new notebooks or new folders to make it fun and exciting. Maybe you guys could decorate binder covers for each other!
Lets say your history teacher assigns a presentation in class that is due in 2 weeks. It must be 10 minutes long and must accompany a slideshow that you made that is at least 20 slides.
Create a schedule for yourself that would show me you can get it done in 2 weeks
EX:
Do 2 slides everyday for 10 days and then work on practicing the presentation after you are done
Do 4 slides everyday for 5 days then work on practicing the presentation to master it!
Tell me what types of memory is being used in the following three scenarios:

2. Your crush tells you their phone number and you repeat it in your head until you can put it in your phone.
3. Someone asks you for your home address and you tell them without even thinking about it.
1. Working Memory (90%)
2. Short Term Memory
3. Long Term Memory
