[quote=Anonymous]How is she tracking assignments?  You may want to get the Order out of Chaos planner and show her how to use it.  She can learn to check off in her planner once she's completed/submitted her assignments.

Does she check the portal (Canvas, Schoology...) every day for all of her classes?  If not, you'll want to help her develop a routine to do so.

How is she keep tracking of papers?  If it is a disaster, consider getting her to use an accordion folder.  It is often easier to quickly put papers in the right spot for classes rather than using binders.  She'll need support to move items she's no longer needing to carry daily to either be recycled or stored safely (by class) at home for any exam prep later in the year.  Some students do this monthly.

Most of all, do everything you can to protect your relationship with her.  Her defensiveness is a sign that she's already sensitive about your feelings on this.  Sometimes outsourcing to an EF coach, can help you better maintain your relationship.[/quote]
