Describe a situation where you are struggling to complete your homework. Explain how you could use a planner to help you manage your time and complete the assignment. Imagine you have a large research paper due in three weeks. Describe how you could break down this large task into smaller, more manageable steps to make it less overwhelming. You have several chores to do this weekend, including laundry, cleaning your room, and mowing the lawn. Explain how you could use a list and prioritization to decide what to do first and ensure you complete everything.
