Children who are weak in this
skill have trouble starting
homework and put off projects
until the last minute. They’re
sometimes seen as lazy or
unmotivated; keep in mind that
kids like this may procrastinate
because they really don’t know
how to start. Many children who
have difficulty getting started
also have trouble with planning
and organizing. They can get
so overwhelmed by everything
they have to do that they end up
doing nothing at all.
