Ranking Priorities in...well, all of my classes!

Hi girls! I hope you all had a fun Halloween weekend! I'm so glad it didn't snow like it was supposed to! In honor of the holiday, my blog will be Halloween colors this weekend!

Since we got to choose which strategies to use this week, I decided to use Ranking Priorities in all of my classes, because I have a lot of work from every class, and I know it can help me organize myself so I get my work done without getting stressed.

I chose to use this strategy again because it was so helpful the first time we used it for CLS. For my Intro to Theatre class, I have a lot of reading, and a lot of the time it can get really overwhelming. A lot of the time, it gets put off in favor of things that are due in the near future, as opposed to the reading which is due at the end of the semester. I also get a lot of work in my other classes, and though it is not traditional college work (I have to memorize ancient Greek speeches, monologues, and scenes, rehearse with my partner, and practice on my own), it is still a lot. Here is my list of priorities before I organized it into a neat, prioritized list:
Unfortunately, I did not have any optional tasks this weekend, so I had no "C" category, only "A" (Absolutely essential), and "B" (Important). Here is my list after I determined which tasks fit into each catergory:
This strategy not only helps me simply by organizing what I need to do, but it also helps me get what I need to do into my head so I won't forget it. Because I am a Kinesthetic learner, taking notes in class helps me keep focused, and when I use this strategy, writing my tasks down somehow makes them seem more doable for me.

This is a great strategy, and I would definitely recommend it to all of you, and my friends who don't take the class! It's an easy way to manage what you need to do, and when.

See you all tomorrow!
