Goal Setting

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

REWIND TO LAST CLASS What we’ll be covering this year

(goal setting, healthy living, mental well being, family life, substance abuse prevention, safety, career development)

Where can we apply everything we learn in HACE?…LIFE!!!

THINK-PAIR-SHAREThink (silently) Take about a minute, write down your

ideas

Pair With a partner/small group, talk about

your ideas

Share Groups will share out their ideas to the

rest of class

THINK-PAIR-SHARE

What is a “goal” An aim or desired result

Why would somebody want to set a goal? To achieve something or make a

change in their life

What is the most important thing you need to achieve any goal? A thought out action plan,

willpower/motivation

“SMART” GOALS S: specific M: measurable A: action-plan R: realistic T: time-oriented

GOAL SETTING: PART 2 Please take ONE bag of chips from the

front of the class

You now have TWO options…1.You can eat the bag of chips now

Or….

2. If you wait until the END of class, I’ll give you a second bag of chips to eat at lunch

COULD YOU WAIT? “The Marshmallow Test” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz1pnFBLZM4

How does “The Marshmallow Test” relate to goal setting?

Many people want “instant gratification” when they set a goal For example: many people who want to lose weight as a New

Year’s resolution will get discouraged if they don’t see results right away!

Do we see “instant gratification” in the first few days when we set a goal? Usually not!! We’ll see our efforts start to pay-off over longer

periods of time, but usually not right away

LAST CLASS…Introduced “SMART” goals (S)specific, (M)measurable, (A)action

plan, (R)realistic, (T)time-oriented

Jim Carey’s “$10 million dollar goal” …was it realistic? To who?

TODAY’S CLASS…1. Looking at “SMART” goal setting

2. Sharing my personal weight loss

story this summer using my

“SMART” goal!

Like I said before, this is a course about

life

3. Making your own goal

(S) SPECIFIC Your goal needs to be… SPECIFIC!!

For example: many people have a New Year’s resolution of “losing weight”…is this specific?…how could we make this goal of “losing

weight” more specific?

(M) MEASURABLE You need to have a way of MEASURING

your progress!

For example, if someone’s goal is to “lose 10 pounds” they could weigh themselves once a week.

(A) ACTION PLAN Have a plan in place! Write down what you’ll do each week (or

each day) to accomplish your goal

(R) REALISTIC Is it possible?

(T) TIME ORIENTED You need to have a “target date” for

your goal!

E.g. Jim Carey’s goal had a very specific target date – Thanksgiving 1995.

“BRAIN BREAK” The attention test https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ahg6qcgoay4

MY PERSONAL WEIGHT LOSS PLAN:(S)pecific I will lose 10 pounds (at the time, I had weighed 210

pounds for over a year)

(M)easureable Weighing myself every 2-3 days to track my progress

(A)ction plan Exercising 1 hour per day, 6 days per week (walking,

running, lifting weights, whatever I felt like doing that day)

(R)ealistic YOU BET IT IS!!

(T)ime-oriented My deadline to weight 200 pounds was September 1st, 2015, at

the time, I weighed 210 pounds on June 26th (the last day of school)

NOW, IT’S YOUR TURN…

Your homework this weekend is to make a goal using “SMART” goal setting

It can be anything!! Make it meaningful to you

Some examples: Performance in school – straight A’s? An A or

B in a class you struggle with? Exercise/weight loss Eat more fruits and vegetables Get more sleep! (in bed on time each night)

GOAL SETTING: PART 3

Today’s agenda

1. Rewind

2. Mr. Bottrill’s goal (yes, I did my homework

as well)

3. Work on our “SMART” goals (homework

check)

4. Barriers

LAST CLASS…Our own version of “the marshmallow test” What was I testing? And how did we relate to

goal setting?Patience! We need to be patient when working

towards our goals, as we won’t achieve our goals overnight!!

Discussed “SMART” goals (S)specific, (M)measurable (A)action-plan (R)realistic (T)time-oriented

MY GOAL Running the Boundary Bay “half-

marathon” on November 1st, 2015 in under 2 hours

Half-marathon = 21.1km (about 50 laps around a running track)

WHAT WE’LL BE DISCUSSING TODAY…

See if you can guess what aspect of goal-setting we’ll be discussing from the video…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nm77s5FbkoQ

Don’t do this, ever, EVER!

BARRIERS ANYTHING that (could) stand in the way

of achieving your goal

BARRIERS Why did I show that video?

This guy’s “goal” was to drive away with a “free” car (in other words, steal it)

The barrier to his goal: the police!Did he have a plan to deal with this barrier?No, hence, the epic fail

Again, always follow the law

THINK-PAIR-SHARE With our definition of “barriers” in mind

(anything that could stand in the way of achieving your goal) List as many possible “barriers” as you can

Getting sick Getting injured Having a huge school project due Parties! (Thanksgiving, Diwali, Christmas) Distractions (TV, Facebook, video games) And much, much, more…

BARRIERS Barriers are different from goal to

goal!

Take my goal of running a half-marathon (in under 2 hours) on November 1st for example…What if I get injured while training for my

half-marathon?What if I get seriously sick (like I am now)

and can’t stick to my training schedule that I’ve planned out?

BARRIERS Or, if your goal was to get 10 hours of

sleep a night?

What are some barriers to getting 10 hours of sleep per night?

SO, WHAT DO YOU DO?

1. Take barriers into consideration when making a goal

Example: I will get 10 hours of sleep per

night, 5-6 nights a week (not 7)

Some possible barriers to not getting enough sleep

A huge school project due Thanksgiving or Diwali get-togethers

SO, WHAT DO YOU DO?2. Take barriers into consideration

when making your (A) action-plan

BARRIERS Barriers are going to happen at some point

or another!

1. Take barriers into

consideration when making a

goal

2. Take barriers into

consideration when making

your (A) action-plan

RE-WORDING GOALS How can we re-word this goal?

“I will eat more fruits and vegetables” …I will eat 5 servings of

fruits/vegetables each day

Why is it better to say “I will eat 5 fruits/vegetables each day” instead of “I will eat more fruits/vegetables”??

AN EXERCISE IN RE-STATING GOALS1. 5 minutes of worktime

(silent)

2. After 5 minutes, share your ideas with a partner

3. We’ll then share our answers as a class

BRAIN BREAK! Stand up!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2a4Uxdy9TQY

REST OF CLASS… Exchange your “get serious about setting

goals” worksheet with a partner

In pen or pencil, (on their worksheet) write down any corrections or suggestions you would give them to make their goal or action plan better (at least 3 corrections or suggestions)

Give their worksheet back

Your homework: make a GOOD copy on your new sheet I just gave you (final copy due next Thursday)

GOAL SETTING: PART 5

I’ll be coming around doing homework checks (completion)

If I see us working well (and quietly), we’ll have a brain break in about 10 minutes

GOAL SETTING: CONCLUSIONAgenda Quote of the day Homework submission Pop quiz Goal setting recap Brain break A peek into the next unit (healthy living)

HAND IN YOUR HOMEWORK

POP QUIZ Take out a piece of paper and a pencil

(close your duotangs and put them on the corner of your desk)

Put your name and date on your paper

1. What does EACH of the 5 letters in our “SMART” goals acronym stand for?

2. Suppose Mr. Bottrill wants to get more sleep each night. Write out a (S) specific goal for Mr. Bottrill

3. In your own words, what is a barrier, in relation to goal setting? Name at least 2 possible barriers that could arise when setting a goal…

SMART GOALS RECAP When writing your goal, try and include

a “target number” in your (S) specific goal

This makes it easy to measure your progress and tell whether or not you succeeded or not

Plan for barriers – they happen!! Have a plan in place for when barriers get in the way of your goal, don’t just blow up your goal!

BRAIN BREAK!!
