I am a teacher. There are certain students whose homes are places of no return for notes, assignments, repaid lunch money, coats, shoes, etc. I'm taking a guess that their homes are messes. I cringe to think what goes on. From a teacher's perspective, here are three bits of advice:
1. Get into a habit of organizing anything to do with school. Check the child's backpack nightly for notes, flyers, etc. Write dates on the calendar.
2. If you have trouble with clutter and organizing, at least try to help train your child to be responsible with his/her things.
3. Continue to declutter each day. A clean home lends itself to more organized children.
