Getting Organized Has Not Been Taught in Schools..... Until Now!
As a NAPO in the Schools Trained Provider, http://www.napo.net/news/nps_list.aspx I will come into your local elementary school to present this totally interactive presentation that teaches elementary school students basic organizing principles and the benefits of being organized. This program is a community outreach presented by NAPO and there is no charge to the schools.
Each school program includes an interactive presentation to be given to students in a classroom setting by a professional organizer (me). The presentation lasts between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on the time available with the teacher. Teachers and students are asked to give feedback in an evaluation form at the end of the presentation. Handouts that include organizing tips are distributed to parents; the aim is to start a dialogue between parent and child about being organized.
The emphasis of the Elementary School program is managing “stuff.” A disorganized child character, Drake or Hazel, is introduced to the students in an interactive way that illustrates how being disorganized affects the character’s life. The students find ways to get Drake/Hazel organized and see how being organized helps him/her. A hands-on organizing exercise then teaches students some basic organizing principles and the concept of sorting.
NAPO in the Schools Middle School and High School programs are in development and will be launched in the fall of 2010.
