Great organizer for homework or daily schedule.

During my student teaching, I had a very organized and rigid cooperating teacher to follow.  In the beginning I was afraid of how well we would work together, since I was the complete opposite. One of my greatest strengths and weaknesses is that I am an adaptable,  go with the flow kind of person. My cooperating teacher requested that by the end of every week, Friday, that I have Monday's and Tuesday's lessons for next week completed, and that by Monday I have the whole week's lessons completed. I spoke to other student teachers, and told them about my schedule. I was upset to hear that I was the only one with this rigorous planning schedule. However, as the weeks continued, I began to  notice a better flow with my lessons. Also, if I needed to make any adjustments to a lesson or homework assignment, it was easier to do. Being prepared a week in advance is a wonderful tool not only for the teachers but for the students as well. This organizer can be used as either a daily schedule so the students can see what is to come in the days ahead, or as a homework organizer for the classroom.
