Setting Priorities and Managing Time Effectively

This lesson teaches high school students practical time management skills using the Eisenhower Matrix framework and collaborative prioritization activities. Students learn to categorize tasks based on urgency and importance, work under time constraints, and make informed decisions about task prioritization. Through hands-on activities and group discussions, students develop essential habits for academic success and personal effectiveness while practicing teamwork and decision-making skills under pressure. The reflection component helps students internalize these concepts for long-term application.
