5. Myths About Organization Myth: Myth: Organizing is the same as being neat. Fact: Fact: Organizing is not about how a space looks, but how it functions

6. Myths About Organization Myth: Myth: Organizing is a talent you’re either born with or not. Fact: Fact: Organizing is a learnable skill.

7. Myths About Organization Myth: Myth: Organizing is about throwing things away. Fact: Fact: You can keep everything you want and still get organized.

8. The Cost of Disorganization If you plan on storing items, for a basic 10 foot by 20 foot storage unit you'll pay approximately $60 a month. This doesn't seem like much, but it works out to $720 a year, and if you rent a space at this rate for 3 years, you'll spend a grand total of $2,160. Most people don't think about the total cost of long-term storage, and when they really stop to consider what they've spent after renting a storage unit, they realize they could have purchased new items with the money wasted on storing the old ones.

9. Part I: The Closet

10. The #1 Rule of Organization “A place for everything and everything in its place.”

11. The #2 Rule of Organization “Out of sight, out of mind.” I don’t have to worry anymore about all of that junk in my closet. It is now at the Salvation Army I can’t remember where I put that sweater. I guess I’ll just have to buy a new one. OrganizedDisorganized

65. Preparing for Tutorials #2 At home, students complete side 1 of the AVID Tutorial Sheet which includes one higher level question from their academic classes, Cornell notes, homework, class work, quizzes, or tests

66. Developing Level 2 & 3 Questions #2 Questions for tutorials should be level 2 or 3 questions. Level 2 or 3 questions are not required for math. Hint: If the questions can be answered simply by looking in your book or your notes, it is probably a level 1 question. You may use the following handout for help developing level 2 & 3 questions.

67. Collecting Tutorial Sheets #3 As students enter the AVID classroom, the AVID teacher or an AVID Tutor collects the AVID Tutorial Sheets. The Tutorial Sheets are the “golden ticket” required to enter class.

72. Presenting the Questions #5 Students present their questions to the group one at a time by writing them on a white board. Students give a 30 second speech to explain what they know up until their point of confusion. Then group members and the AVID tutor ask questions to help the students with their questions.

73. How to Present a Question #5 1.Write the problem neatly on the whiteboard. 2.Face the group members. 3.Read the question out loud to the group. 4.Explain any prior knowledge and what you already understand about the question. 5.Explain what strategies you used in attempting to answer the question. 6.Indicate to your group exactly where you became confused as you worked to answer this question.

Questions to Ask During Tutorials #6 1.Can you explain your question in another way? 2.What do you already know about the question? 3.What have you already tried? 4.Where could you find a similar problem in the book? 5.Do you have Cornell notes that may help? 6.Where could you go for more information? 7.What website might help you with your question? 8.What does ___________mean? 9.How would you graphically illustrate your process? 10.What would happen if you changed _____________? 11.What if you tried ______________? 12.How would you teach this to a friend?
