Dear Ally,

Yesterday I got in trouble again. I was late for school because I couldn't find my homework or my book bag. I had to stay after school and do my homework over again. I was upset because I missed baseball practice. I don't want to miss practice again.

What should I do?

Yours truly,

Sam

Dear Sam,

The answer to your problem is easy. You should get organized.

You should find a special place to keep your books and book bag. Always put them there after school and after you finish your homework. In the morning, your things will be easy to find. You won't be late, and you won' I miss baseball practice anymore.

Yours truly,

Ally
