How do you make a daily plan?

Do you think a daily plan is helpful in spending your time?

 

1. A daily will help you plan every part of your day, from the moment you wake up to the moment you crawl into bed at night. You will be able to take contral of how you spend your time from one hour to the next. Here is how to make one.

2. Draw a chart of all your waking hours, using one square for each half hour. And label each square with the starting time. For example, label the first hour square 6:30 a.m. and the next one 7:00 a.m. and so forth.

3. Make a list of all the things you need to do. from taking a shower to doing homework and after school activities.

4. Write things that have specific start time into your schedule chart. For instance, if you know you have to be at the bus stop at 7:00 a.m., fill in that square bus stop.

5. Move on to the things that don't have specific start time, but that you have to get done. Whe finding squares of time to fell them in. think the time about of the day. For example, it may be a good idea to schedule homework before dinner, since after your meal you may get too sleepy to concentrate.

6. Give yourself a break! Schedule a little of free time.

7. If you have an important event, adjust other things, so you can make your schedule work out.

8. Consider using a different colored pen to color differents types of responsibilities. You could use yellow for family chores, red for school events, and so forth. This way, you'll get a good sense of how your day is planned out just by glancing at your schedule.

9. Remember that we can't predict what is going to happen every day, and time management should be flexible, too. If you have to spend two hours at the hospital, you probably won't be able to stick to your schedule. You can make it up by giving yourself an extra square the next day.
