“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve. ”

Purpose: To set a learning goal for school, friendships, sports and personal.
WALT: Set Smart Goals
Task: 
S.M.A.R.T. means Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-sensitive.
Specific: Don’t be vague. What exactly do you want?
Measurable: Quantify your goal. How will you know if you’ve achieved it or not?
Attainable: Be honest with yourself about what you can reasonably accomplish at this point in your life, taking into consideration your current responsibilities.
Realistic: It’s got to be doable, real and practical.
Time: Associate a time frame with each goal. When should you complete the goal.


My writing goal is to organise and group my ideas into paragraphs using links within and between paragraphs.
The reason I have decided to focus on this goal is because I don't use paragraphing.
I will accomplish my goal by putting my ideas first into groups then into paragraphs to make it easier for the reader.

My reading goal is to identify an authors purposes and point of view when I am reading longer more complex texts.
The reason I have decided to focus on this goal is because I find it really really really hard to find the authors purpose.
I will accomplish my goal by the end of term 3. The steps I'm going to take are read then think at the end of each chapter for a while.

My maths goal is to find the answer to two digits multiplication equations.
The reason I have decided to focus on this goal is because I find it quite hard to find the answer to two digit multiplication.
I will accomplish my goal by solving one digit multiplication then moving 1 and 2 digit multiplication then onto two digit multiplication.
