Today in class we learned about smart goals and how they help you get a better understanding of how you are going to achieve your goal. The three goals we had to create was a learning in school goal, character growth goal, and lastly learning outside of school goal

My first goal was about my school learning. This year I want to get a A in math. This goal is important to me, because I have always struggled in math and end up being behind. To prevent this I am going to do two extra questions on each topic, or as many as I need to fully understand. In my video I drew a picture of me having trigonometry, what we are learning in math right now, going into my head. This represented me fully understanding trigonometry. I can track my grade by keeping a record of assignment marks and having a tally of my current mark throughout the year. I showed that by writing down each mark and adding it up and hopefully like it shows in the video I’ll get 86%

My second goal was to learn how to be a better leader and really build more confidence something that I have struggled with for a while. This year I am going to take charge in project and, as you see me holding a mega phone, make sure my voice is heard

 

Finally my last goal is something I have been working and dreaming to do since grade 8 which is to complete my intermediate ballet exam. I am going to practice at vanleenaf and go over the exam criteria at home and at the studio every Tuesday and Saturday. With hard work and patience I should be able to complete this goal by February.

 

I learned how to make those simple unrealistic goals into smart goals by making them specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely. By making my goals smart goals they become much easier for me to actually follow through with. This simple lesson will be something I’ll use forever in my daily life.
