What is this layout?
Plans go in the top of each box, and to-dos go in the □ below.
Monthly layouts show one month (or two) on a single sheet.
How to use
- Write plans with set times in the top of the box.
- Write the day's to-dos in the □ below.
- Check the □ when you finish.
The sample picture above shows a middle-schooler's plans: red = tests, due dates and deadlines; green = fun plans; yellow highlighter = the one most important thing. Layouts differ, so each one is written a little differently.
★ Tip
Plans and to-dos are separate, so it suits people with lots of homework.
