Determine Three Goals (2 academic & 1 non-academic)
Create Page for Goals
Add goals to page and include for each:
Goal Statement
How you will reach goal
What support you need to achieve goal
What obstacles you will have to overcome
Example of Academic CORE Class Goal:
I will score an average of 80% or higher each cycle in English. I will earn an 80% or higher by turning assignments in on time, asking questions and attending tutorials when I don’t understand concepts, and participating in class. I will need my teacher’s help when I don’t understand concepts and will need to use my phone to enter reminders for deadlines. I will have to resist the urge to play play station instead of doing my work.
Example of Academic EXTRA-CURRICULAR MUSIC Goal:
I will play Short Ride in a Fast Machine with rhythmic accuracy. I will reach my goal by listening to professionals, practicing, and using a metronome. I will need help from my peers to determine where my parts fit in. I will have to overcome the challenge of the inconsistent rhythm.
Example of Academic EXTRA-CURRICULAR ATHLETIC Goal:
I will decrease my time in the 400 meter dash by 15 seconds. I will reach my goal by meeting times during practice and cutting out junk food from my diet. I will need help from my coach in setting times for workouts and peers who will push me in practice. I will have to resist the temptation to eat hot fries and drink soda. I will also have to work hard at practice even when I am not feeling my best.
Example of Non-Academic Goal:
I will improve my time management skills so I am not doing tasks at the last minute. I will set personal deadlines and put reminders in my phone prior to due dates. I will create a list of priorities for each day. I will need help from teachers to estimate the amount of time tasks will take. I will have to make sure I stick to my schedule as much as possible and don’t let distractions get in the way.
