5A-Michelle-Q.4+Goals

Michelle's 4th Quater Goals.
1. Concentraiting on the task How? By not talking about the things that are not involved with the task.

2. Review all writing for grammer and spelling errors. How? By reading more books and looking up words every time I don't know something.

3. Reduce your time with computer games. How? By getting on the task as soon as I finish my snack and break.

4/13/2008 Goal 1: I did talk about things not related to the task or the topic. I tried not to talk about the things not related to the topic. However, I couldn't get rid of my habbit of talking when ever I have free time or when I'm done with my task. I really try to get rid of my habbit, but I can't get rid of it easilly. When I was sitting with Peter before, I got my habbit of talking when ever I was done with something. Since Jessica O. and Peter always fight, I had to get them calm down. Which makes me talk and help them calm down. Now I'm not blaming Peter and Jessica that I didn't do well on following my goal.

Goal 2:I don't think I did a nice job because I didn't look up every single word that I didn't get. However, I did read books and I finally finished __Walk Two Moons__ by Sharon Creech. I didn't look up every single word that I didn;t know but I did look up words for homework or the word that I had to know to understand the writing. Therefore I think I did and did not do well in reviewing all writings for grammer and spelling errors. I did look up and asked my dad if I didn't get any thing and if I wanted to know more about something like the Tibet and China thing.

Goal 3:I think I did a good job on this goal because I only played computer games when I was done with my homework or if I only had little homework. I ate my snack after I returned from the school and after I watched "Totally Spies", I did my homework. I think I did really got on to my task right after my free time and snack time. I think I did a nice job doing things during my free time and my study(homework) time.

4/26/2008 Goal 1: I think I did a good job on concentraiting on the task this week. For example, I have finished the language art center works (almost) at school. It was my first time getting to the vocabulary paragraph at school at class. Until now, I did most of my language arts center works at home for homework. However, in the last few weeks I got to work on Daily Language Review and the vocabulary paragraph or the write now assignment. If I had not concentraited, it would be impossible to get to the DLR(daily language review) and the other assignments.

Goal 2: I think I did a little bit well on looking up the words. When I was reading A Single Shard by Linda Sue Park, there were a lot of words I didn't understand such as emissary, kiln, etc. I looked up the words that really annoyed me while I read the book. However, I didn't looked up the word that I thought it didn't effect me understand the story. I hate to say this but I think (to be honest) I was too lazy to look up the words.

Goal 3: I think I didn't do a good job in getting on to my task right after I finish my snack and watching Totally Spies. I think I didn't do a good job because I was too tired for some reason and I slept for like 2 hours after my free time. I think I was too tired last week. And on Thursday I had to go to my grandma's house because she wanted to see me and to get my dad's medicine from my grandpa even though I had to do my book report and the science project. Which caused me to sleep at 12:00 A.M. Which caused me to be tired again the next day.

5/16/2008 Goal 1: I think I didn't do a good job on concentraiting on the task. Since I messed up the science quiz(test) I thought about what I did that day. I was shocked by realizing that I had spended most of the day with sleeping and computer. I think I should get rid of some of my computer times. I think I didn't study that much because I believed in my self too much sicne I got good grades on the last few tests. I think I shouldn't believe my self too much and start studying. Oops! I was talking about the science quiz not the goal......Sorry... Ok back to the topic. Even though I messed up most of the time(this week) I think I did a good job at least today(Friday). Because I almost finished the Mr.Bones thing.

Goal 2: I think I did an OK on looking up words this week. First of all, we had to naturally look up words by doing the literature circle jobs(Word Wizard). Also, today(Friday) when we went to the library, we played the dictionary finding game. Even though Earth and Water lost, we looked up alot of words. The reason I wrote OK is because I didn't look up a single word in the introduction of the book __Twilight__.

Goal 3: I think I didn't do a good job on getting on to task right after the snack time because I mostly slept half of the afternoon after school.I think I should do my homework right after the school so I can sleep faster which would let me stay up after school(Ooh, cause and effect!). I think I have to sleep faster and do homework.

6/1/2008 Goal 1: I think I did a good job in concentraiting on my task this week. Because I finished most of my homework at school. for example on math class, I have finished my homework during the class(including everyone else). Also on Wednesday, I finished almost everything(experiments) in class. Therefore I got alot of free time at home after my homework.

Goal 2: I don't think I did a good job on lokking up words this week since I haven't looked up a single word while reading __Twilight.__ I am feeling very guilty because I didn't looked up any words which means I haven't been keeping track of my goals. I am also disaapointed of how I come I haven't been looking up a single word during the whole week.

Goal 3: I think I did a good and bad on getting on task emidiately after totaly spies. First of all, I finished all my homework this week and slept early. However, I have staied up until 2'O clock (morning) to work on literature circle and the Body Systems Book. I should have listened to you when you said don't wait til the last minute.
