Now that the first marking period is coming to a close, do you think this course has been what you expected?  I think that now that the marking period is over everything that was told to me at the beginning ended up happening and it’s what I expected. 
Are you happy with your academic performance this marking period?  I am not happy with my academic performance because I feel like I didn’t put forth all of my effort this marking period.  One assignment I failed to complete this marking period is my paper about my novel and because of that I know I failed this marking period. 
Things that I learned this Marking Period
·         How to critique media
·         Write an effective essay
·         Write an effective thesis statement
·         How to manage my time
In what ways do you think you’re becoming more college ready?  I think I’m becoming more college ready by being on my own all the time in this course.  Also I’m becoming more college ready by creating my own schedule for when I will get my work done and I have to abide by my schedule. 
What was the goal you set for yourself last week?  Were you successful or not?  Explain.  Last week I was unsuccessful in setting a goal for myself. 
What is one short term goal you can set for yourself for the coming week?  One short term goal I can set for myself in the coming week is improving my grade next marking period.

  1. You didn't complete the paper, yet you stated you learned how to write an effective essay. You told me you don't know how to write a paper...so, you're confusing me! I want to work with you and get these skills up, but you've gotta be clear with me about what you need. I can't tell what you avoid because you're struggling with the work and what you just simply don't do. TALK TO ME...

    Also, goals you set should be short-term and attainable for the upcoming week!
