Synopsis
Missing assignments. Half-done homework. Sloppy notes. When it comes to his schoolwork, Dakota is often inattentive and usually unorganized. His lack of focus leads to disappointments, and his teachers and his mom are increasingly concerned. His grades, which were never exactly stellar, are slipping, and Dakota is making excuses. Excuses like: All the teachers have it out for me, there's way too much homework anyway, and none of this is my fault! So what is going on? Does Dakota get more homework than everyone else? Are teachers giving him confusing instructions and unrealistic deadlines? Or does Dakota simply need some strategies and support so he doesn't rely solely on his memory to recall every assignment, can maintain focus and avoid distractions, and perhaps even reduce his mountain of missed work? With encouragement, guidance, and concrete strategies, Dakota discovers he has to adopt better homework habits, including having a designated homework spot, using color-coded binders, and creating a time-management chart. "My Schoolwork Is a Mess!" is a relatable, reassuring chapter book that reminds young readers, especially those who struggle to keep track of assignments and finish projects, that they can climb out of their homework hole, reset their attitude, and keep up.
