[QUOTE="Andy, post: 566513, member: 5096"] I figured out early on that the color coded system was not going to work for difficult child. He had no interest in separating papers to that level. And if he did, he wouldn't bring all home work home as he would forget assignments. So, what works for him is an accordion type folder with pockets labeled 'to do' 'for mom' 'to hand in'. One large notebook with a few subject dividers. He brought the folder and notebook home and that helped getting assignments done and in. not everyone organizes the same way. We shouldn't expect all kids to be able to organize in the same way. We found a system that works for us and I don't care if teachers are upset because he doesn't bring a blue notebook or folder to class like everyone else. If it works, it works. [/QUOTE]
