Then tell me what you want to do this year. Choose one thing you want to change in terms of learning and one thing you want to change in terms of behavior.
1. Introductory Paragraph Introduce yourself and what you are writing about.
2. Academic goals This is what you want to do to improve your learning. Did you want to improve your math skills? Maybe learn how to multiply numbers. Maybe you improved your ability to write. Maybe you want to become a better reader or a better writer. Give details.
3, Behavioral Goals: This is refers to your behavior. Maybe you want to get better control of your behavior. Or you plan on being nicer to other students and consider how others feel this year. Maybe you want to be a better listener or follow rules more closely. Perhaps you stopped bullying other students. Or maybe want to become less shy and join in play and classroom activities more often.
The third paragraph should tell me how you plan on making these changes. If you want to gain control of your behavior are you going to create a plan with your counselor or para or parent. If you want to be a better reader are you going to make sure you read everyday at home for 30 minutes each night.
