Bullet Journal Ideas For School
Even though I find that all these pages are very useful, remember not to overload yourself with new pages. You don't have to use ALL of these ideas.
Try out a few of these that help you with the thing you need help with and see if they work for you before you try more pages.
With that out of the way, let's dive in!
The first thing I want you to consider is that a lot of basic Bullet Journal pages can actually be customized for school use.
This is an example of a way you can use your future log for school.
No matter if you're going to school or university, chances are you have certain deadlines which you can't miss. Having a tracker like this one definitely helps!
A grades tracker is important for you to make sure you're on track with your academic goals. It's essential if your final grade consists of grades for different assignments.
Routines are always so helpful since they allow you to automate a lot of things and not waste time thinking about what it is you're supposed to be doing. It's good for organization and time management.
You don't have to make it a complicated spread as well; something simple like this one will work just as well.
I always find it very useful to make notes visual, more interesting, and creative. With enhanced visual elements, the notes will be easier to understand and faster to remember as well.
Time blocking is a great technique to stay productive and make sure you get all things done, and this spread is a great example of how you can do a time-blocking schedule for an entire week.
You can make a new one every week, or you can make one for a month and try to keep up with the same one for a month. Whatever works for you, always remember that it's up to you to find the best way for you.
Back-to-school season is the time when you can easily get overwhelmed by all the stationery and other supplies and end up buying too many things you might not need. But if you have a list like that, you always make sure you have all the supplies you need and don't waste money buying the same things twice.
Of course, it's important to make sure that you are always in the right place for your classes, so a weekly schedule like this one is definitely a must-have page.
One more basic Bullet Journal page that you might need for your school's success as well. You can get so much benefit from planning your day-to-day studies and assignments with a weekly spread!
Plus, you can always use it as an opportunity to draw some back-to-school doodles.
Sleep tracker has a lot of benefits generally, but I think it's an especially important page for students. We all know as a student you don't sleep enough, but you really should if you want to have your brain work at its best.
Of course, you'll need a weekly spread to plan your day-to-day work, but it would also be useful to add a plan specifically for homework. This is an example of how to easily include that in your weekly spread.
This is a really fun way to keep track of all your school projects! Plus, you get to use some of your sticky notes as well and you can keep reusing this page over and over again.
Finally, I wanted to mention sketchnotes. This is if you're ready to invest a bit more time on your notes and trust me, this will be worth it.
Organizing your notes that way will help you to go through our notes again, put it all in a very clear format and make it more visual and colorful so your brain activates just looking at all this fun stuff.
It's really been game-changing for my studies, and if you have a bit more time, this is one of the best ways to study.
