5. Move to the weekly breakdown, and write down tasks that need to get done for each day of the week specifically. Make sure to maintain the same organization with the colors associated with each class or event.
6. After a task or assignment is complete, be sure to cross off the event to distinguish its completion from other tasks that still need to be finished.
7. Alter, and/or update this planner daily to keep up with assignments or events that come about.
