Planning and Organisation

Planning is the ability to think about, organise and carry out a sequence of actions. Planning involves organising body movements, thoughts, ideas, language, objects, time and emotions. It can affect a child's ability to perform everyday tasks.

Planning and organisational skills can be learned and children may be assisted by:-

Breaking down tasks into small manageable steps,
setting goals which are measureable and achievable,
making checklists and plans, and
using tools to manage time.

You will find lots of tips and examples of ways to assist your child with planning and organisational skills below.
