How to help students talented in Organizer…
Ask these students how they would like to schedule the day. Plant the seeds of thought by asking how someone could schedule the day, week, weekend, semester break, or summer.
Offer ways for these students to be helpful to others by organizing things for you. For instance, could these students organize the classroom, clubroom, science lab, or manage the sports equipment?
Connect these students with someone older who is good at organizing. Find someone who can model the value of organization in a person’s life. This will provide more ideas and examples of ways to put organization into action.
