Goal Setting

Feel free to COPY this or develop your own.

In AVID, SMART goals are discussed prior to completion. When students write their first goal in AVID class, they also calculate their GPA. In AVID, goals are checked to see if the goal and steps are specific and measurable, achievable within the four week period, and recorded in their planner or on a note card and placed in their binder/chromebook/somewhere visible. (It takes at least a class period.)

NOTE: Each core area could focus on a goal for their area, however, students could become overwhelmed with 4 or five goals for one four week period. Having students look at their overall performance could be a way to support students in ALL academic areas. (Just a thought)
