 * DETERMINATION - KEEPING MY DESK TIDY**

I will talk positively about being tidy and not say things like " I am just not a tidy person" or "my sister is the neat freak in our family" Instead I will say " I am getting better at being tidy" and "Although it's not easy for me to be tidy I am trying very hard and I will have a tidy desk". I will say at least one positive thing about my tidier desk to another teacher and my class at least once every two days. I will practise being determined to have a tidy desk by tidying my desk after school and at lunch time. __Addition to my action plan__ Throw things in the bin straight away Sort the blue bin to one side of my desk out and keep that as ongoing laminating, photocopying etc.

I haven't said anything negative to anyone and I think I am improving. I tidied my desk at lunchtime 3 times this week and every day after school.

__Checkpoint two weeks later......__ Not always doing the lunch time tidy, but it is now routine totidy before I go home. I am getting better at speaking positively and I am even telling people how much better I'm getting. Haven'tsortedmy blue bin yet.

__End of term checkpoint__ It all went to custard. Production! Now the madness is over I had a big clean out on Friday- even my desk drawers. I found the bin that contains my folders had become a bit of a dumping ground. I have had a throw out from the blue bin but perhaps need to label it. Goal for the holidays is to sort out the upright green files (where the spelling lists are.**
