  2. What level of badge are you aiming for? How will you achieve it?

  4. How did conferences go? Write a short summary of what we discussed and what your goals are. *Pierce can share his notes if you forget…

Through out this part of the quarter we have been learning about the challenges of a large and growing population. I believe I am doing ok with mostly ME’s and some minor exceptions. I also believe I have a good understanding of what we are learning, because sometimes I discuss some of it with my parents when watching news.

 

I am aiming for the _____ badge because I want to achieve a badge where I don’t have any work issues like forgetting homework or not finishing my homework. I want to have a better badge than I had last time in the previous unit, because I want to see that I had an improvement.

My learning goals for Unit 2 of Social Studies is to get better grades, finish every work piece, and study more before a summative, not just the night before. Another goal is also to not forget what I learn from the unit. However I have once not finished my homework on time, so I have to try to not do that again, and to follow my unit goals.

In my parent conferences we discussed about some of my achievements and disappointments in a class. We also talked about how I do in group activities and in class discussions. My goals are to try to work faster and also try to give in  homework that would give me a DE.
