My Goals for Term 3

Morena all, welcome back to term 3 and my blog! I'm going to be starting off the term by telling you my goals for this term. What goals do you have for yourself this term? Let me know in the comments!

I like setting goals for myself as the term starts because it's always going to be in the back of my head to remind me. It's also something I can look back on. Do you set goals for yourself?

My Science Goals

Science Badges:

  

'Conservation'  

• Climate Science
• Global Warming
• Recycling
• Renewable Energy
• Fossil Fuels
• Ecology
• Our Planet
• Water
• Plants

1. 15 Points are needed to get a badge
2. A high standard of work.

• All experiments are written up ( Aim, Materials, Steps, Conclusion)
• Two photos of your experiment
• 6 sentences at least for a conclusion

Science will be twice per week.

• Lesson 1: This will be an Experiment that involves blogging. You will be expected to open a new post, copy Mr Palmer's blog and paste it on your new post.
• Lesson 2: This will be an Investigation that relates to the topic of Lesson 1. It will be own choice and displayed in a way that you prefer. For example - PowerPoint, Doc, etc

BLOGGING.

All the blogs and science lessons will be displayed on Mr Palmer's blog:

Bookmark it!

Expectations:

• 1 blog must be completed per Hurumanu lesson.
• A completed blog must have the four headings ( Aim, Method, Findings, Conclusion), correct writing and punctuation under each heading and be published. No post, no points.
• 2 images of the experiment/investigation on the blog.

Using the Scientific method of investigation:

Aim: What the experiment/investigation is about.

Method: Instructions on how the experiment/investigation is carried out. This includes the equipment.

Findings: What have we learnt or found out from our experiment/investigation. This is called Data, Information or Facts. It is displayed in a chart, table or picture.

Conclusion:  

My Hurumanu Science Goals:



1. My first goal for Science Hurumanu is to always commit to my task even when it is hard.


2. My second goal for Science Hurumanu is to be prepared for every lesson.


3. My third goal for Science Hurumanu is to respect others around me. 

Reaching My Goals

                       Reaching My Goals
About 1 month ago we wrote down some goals that we wanted to achieve this term. We all had to choose 3, these are mine.

1. I ask for help when I don’t understand what to - When I don't ask for help it takes me longer to complete the work I am given. So I really feel like I should ask for help more. 

2. I am a curious learner - I ask questions. - I don't really ask many questions in class. I feel like I should really work on that.

3. I share my ideas and point of view with different people. - I don't really like socialize with people I am not really used to. I feel like I should work on socializing more.

Reflection

Have I met these goals yet? Actually I am doing pretty good with the "I ask for help when I don't understand what to do" one. The other 2...not so much. Hopefully I get into student council that will help boost my socializing skills.
