High School?

does anyone have any good ideas for organizing all of your folders, notebooks, agendas, and books for high school...tell me how you organize all of your papers..and give me some ideas..whether it is a binder or folders..i just need some ideas

High School?
Well, put dividers in your binders and clearly mark the sections in your notebooks. Highlighters are always useful and so are shelves in your locker. When you put your stuff in your locker, arrange your books and notebooks/binders together in order of periods. Your first period stuff, second period...
Reply:Throw it all in your backpack or locker, worked for me. The papers on the top of my crap pile were more recent than on the bottom.
Reply:I used to have a notebook and a folder for each class I took so that I could take notes in the notebook and have the folder to put assignments in and to keep graded papers in. I liked for my folder and notebook to be the same color. If I knew the primary color of the textbook, I would have the notebook and folder match the textbook.





I also had a plastic case for all my pencils, pens, highlighters, pen sharpener, and erasers. (Nerdville, I know) But it kept me organized so it made studying and getting to class easier.





Best wishes to you. Hope this helps.
Reply:I kept one folder that I had dividers in. Like.. one for notes, one for quizzes, tests, homework, etc. etc.


I also kept an index because we didn't have a textbook in that class %26amp; we used that notebook on tests %26amp; stuff, so having an index helps out so much more when trying to find things.
Reply:I get a 1" or 1.5" binder for three of my classes, then I get a 3 subject notebook for the rest of my classes, so that way I don't have one giant, and heavy binder. I dont have any books to carry because we get a home set, and a class set, so I don't have to carry any books, but thats because my school doesnt have any lockers. If you have lockers, then thats where I would put my books
Reply:It depends what your teachers ask for. Usually I have a binder for each class or a spiral notebook for each class. For teachers who don't specify what they want, I have just a spiral notebook I use for various things and if I get handouts I stick them inside the back of the notebook. A 3-prong folder full of paper also works. Not the most organized way but it's been working for me. Just wait til school starts and the teachers will tell you what supplies you should have for their classes and eventually you'll figure it all out.
Reply:i have one tip that should solve all your problems.





COLOR CODING!





it will keep all your books/notebooks etc together. use colors that you make connections with to make easier to remember which color goes with which subject. this is what i did:


math=red, because red reminds me of pain, just like math!


english=black, because it's the color of text


spanish=orange, because for some reason fiestas seem like they would have alot of orange decorations (don't ask lol)


science=blue, because of the ocean


history/geography=green, becaue it's the color of land
Reply:1 binder or folder (depending on the course load) for each class with dividers for for each section:


notes


homework


graded assignments


projects


in the front pocket I would always keep the syllabus along with rules and regulations or class contract for that class





Some teachers require that you have a specific size binder, etc and require you to set it up a certain way so I would wait until after the first day of class to organize all of that
