All day long he fits and tucks,

and fits and tucks, and tucks and fits,
and fits and tucks, and tucks and fits.

Task 2. Read and discuss.
T: The subject of our lesson is scheduling.
T: The Importance of Scheduling. How do you think is it important?
Scheduling is the art of planning your activities so that you can achieve your goals and
priorities in the time you have available. When it's done effectively, it helps you:
- Understand what you can realistically achieve with your time.
- Make sure you have enough time for essential tasks.
- Add contingency time for "the unexpected."
- Avoid taking on more than you can handle.
- Work steadily toward your personal and career goals.
- Have enough time for family and friends, exercise and hobbies.
- Achieve a good work-life balance.
Time is the one resource that we can't buy, but we often waste it or use it ineffectively.
Scheduling helps you think about what you want to achieve in a day, week or month, and it
keeps you on track to accomplish your goals.
Now speak how to Schedule Your Time
Set a regular time to do your scheduling – at the start of every week or month, for
example.
There are a number of different tools to choose from. A simple and easy way to keep a
schedule is to use a pen and paper, organizing your time using a weekly planner.
You can also use apps and software such as Google Calendar®, MS Outlook® and
Business Calendar. Choose a scheduling tool that suits your situation, the current structure of
your job, your personal taste, and your budget.
The most important thing when choosing your planner is that it lets you enter data
easily, and allows you to view an appropriate span of time (day/week/month) in the level of
detail that you need.
