Coaching 

The Me project...

> Your goal in coaching class over term 1 & 2 is to work on completing The me project.

> This is an ongoing project aimed at you understanding yourselves more and finding out what your strengths and weaknesses are and how you can work on personal development. Some of this work will be completed in coaching class and other elements will be completed outside of coaching class.

> There will be a range of tasks to complete which can be carried out in any order.

> The way we will keep track of your completion of activities and tasks is that you will keep a record of these on a google site that you will develop.

> Making a google site

This is an example of the start of a site, Ms Keighley started site 

If you have started one previously you may use this and continue to add to it.
