This integration saves users time by enabling them to keep track of tasks in one place. Once they complete the task, the flag will be removed automatically. Searching is easy via keyword or hashtag, and students can also opt to pull in tasks from flagged emails from their Outlook account. There's also the ability to add files, notes, and sub-tasks to an item, minimizing the need to move back and forth between different lists. Several list-sorting options provide a visual reminder of more pressing tasks users can choose from a handful of colors and themes to keep lists separate between home, work, and school. Students can manually add tasks to the My Day list or choose them from their other lists. In-app support explains how to use the tool, but it's pretty easy to learn the basics through general use. A replacement for Wunderlist, which Microsoft acquired in 2015, this app feels a bit like a tool in progress.

Microsoft To-Do is a list-making app and website that lets teachers and students prioritize and manage tasks over time.

For example, students can add "Write down one interesting thing you learned in class today" to their list every day teachers can follow up with students to see their progress, and students will be developing both a good habit and a list of class concepts for future study and review. Encourage students to add a recurring task in order to develop positive learning habits. The My Day feature can help kids develop the habit of setting priorities for each day it also suggests that they add tasks that are overdue or did not get completed the previous day. Students can also use the app in place of a student planner and be able to access their updated lists from any device.

Teach students how to use lists for multi-step assignments and projects, breaking them down into manageable pieces to complete the process in parts rather than being overwhelmed by the whole picture. Whether they use Microsoft To-Do to manage daily tasks, set priorities, schedule meetings, or make a list of after-school errands, teachers and students will find it a useful platform for getting things done.
