Presentation transcript:

“A goal is a dream with a deadline.”  What are your goals for one year? Five years? TEN years? Some of your goals might be academic in nature while others may be more personal and have to do with your “outside of school” life.  Write a paragraph (3-5 sentences with correct spelling, punctuation, sentence structure) for each time frame and be specific with your goals.

 After you finish your rough draft, then put each paragraph (TYPED OR IN PEN) on a separate note card, attach the note cards to construction paper and decorate it neatly.  This counts as a minor assessment grade and will be hung up in the classroom.  Goal Projects due on Friday!
