Week 4 Goals

My four goals for this Week:
-  One of my goals this week is to successfully act in my friends preliminary task for his media project. This is a good target as it improves my skills within acting and it will show that I am mature as I am able to take on a role I am not used to without laughing due to it being out of my comfort zone. In order for me to achieve this goal I don't only need maturity but I need to have good team working skills as I need to communicate with my peers in order to act successfully. With these set of skills I should successfully be able to help my friend complete his media coursework. This goal should be completed on Saturday (17/10/15).




- I need to ensure my two pieces of artwork are finished by the end of this week as I have to ensure that I do not fall behind in my art coursework. Both pieces require at least another 1-2 hours so therefore I need to ensure that this time is around and possibly in my extra curricular time. This requires good organisational skills as I need to manage my time in order to ensure all of my work is completed by the end of this week (18/10/15).

- I need to ensure that I remember all homework in which has to be completed. This is essential as it ensures that I will not get any points for missing deadlines or failing to hand in homework. It is important that I focus on this aspect of my education as it ensures that I respect my school work and that I will not drop behind. As this will cause me to overwork myself and possibly fail at sixth form. To overcome this I need to ensure I prioritise necessities such as homework to ensure that I do not fail. I should show signs of improvement by the end of this week (18/20/15).

- Another skill in which I wish to complete is the ability to be more independent in maths. Although I am already preforming decently within my maths I need to see whether I will preform better on my own, this could be done via methods such as sitting at a table by myself or even perhaps trying to not get distracted by others in the class. In order for me to get as little help as possible from others, I need to have a good independence skills as I need to test my own abilities by trying to get as little help as possible. This should be completed by the end of the week (18/10/15). 

Week 4 Review:

- The filming was a success. We managed to complete the work before the deadline so as a result Danny was able to edit the work on the day of filming. The fact that here was so much time also ensured that he had enough time to edit the work to a professional standard. We also come over any awkward moments by having a mature attitude towards filming and this ensured that the scenes used were complete within two or three takes.


- The work was not complete by the end of the school week but instead was complete by the end of the weekend. I decided to make this choice as it ensured that I did not rush my work and that it was completed to a good standard. This was a responsible choice as I understood that I required more time and that I did something about it.


- I remembered all homework and made sure that it was complete to the best of my abilities. I ensured that I worked on a bit of homework each day in order to not overwhelm myself with work in which needs to be completed. It also ensured that I didn't rush my homework and therefore lose quality.

- Although I have not segregated myself within the maths classroom I am still setting the personal target to ensure that I am working alone. Instead of working with people in my table I work by myself and occasionally refer to my peers if I need clarification or help. This has worked well so far as I am beginning to understand things and overcome problems by myself. It is making me more of an independent worker.

Week 3 Goals

My four goals for this Week:


- To ensure that I complete 4/5 A2's worth of artwork for my art deadline. I need to set this as a goal so I remember to complete it. It is essential I do this as it will prevent me form overloading myself with course work. This should be completed before the October half term 24th.  Therefore By the end of this week I need to ensure that I have at least 1 done by the end of this week.


- To ensure that I talk to my manager and sort out my work shifts. This needs to be done as it will ensure that I can work the hours I am free and that my job will not be of a great inconvenience. This should be completed by Friday as I will ring up in the morning.

- This is more of a personal target however it is still important. I need to ensure that I am planning enough sleep as I am deprived. This will be resolved by having a sound skill in time management. Sleep is important as my body needs to rest in order to preform well.

- I need to ensure that I purchase the correct items for my Duke of Edinburgh training. This will be important as I need to be responsible and mature when deciding what thing to tale. If I fail to take the correct things I will not preform well. 


Week 3 Review:

- I have failed to compete this target as I did not consider a time boundary. I did not realise the amount of time in which I needed to complete all of my work to a good standard. Although I am behind on my target, however, I have managed to make at least 3 A2 pages worth of work so I am not too far behind. In order for me to ensure that I do not going to fail this target again, I need to manage my time more efficiently.(10/10/15)


- I have managed to organise my shift so I am now working with no inconveniences. I achieved this by approaching my work in a mature manor by ringing up the manager and politely asking if it is possible that I could rearrange my shifts. I am now working to days that fit me and my out of school activities.(10/10/15)


- I have completed this target to a certain extent. I ensured that every night I had the opportunity to get at least 8 hours sleep. The only complications I did discover was certain nights when I struggled to relax or shut down. The only way in which I can overcome this is finding things in which I can do before I go to bed, such as reading, which will relax me or perhaps planning in extra time in which I have time to relax before bed.(10/10/15)


- I completed the training with success. I ensured that I packed food in which was healthy and full of vital vitamins and minerals. I also ensured that I packed plenty of water so I did not become dehydrated. There is no further ways in which I can overcome this target as I have completed it to a decent standard.(10/10/15)

Week 2 Goals

My four goals for this Week:


- My first goal will be to fit into my art lesson and complete the work in which is required to catch up. This is essential as I need to ensure that I feel comfortable within this new work environment and that I will complete all necessary work. This is because it ensures that will not lag behind and get overloaded with work. This will be completed within the next few weeks as it will take quite a while to get used to the different teacher, times and students within the classes. 


-I need to succeed within my AS levels as it will benefit me in later life. This goal is long term as it is quite a while until I have to sit the AS tests. However, it is important that I set this as a goal as it will drive me to succeed within my lessons. Therefore to get into a good university and succeed.


-I need to ensure that all my ICT work is complete as I need to ensure that I complete all my work to deadlines. This is important as I need to ensure that I do not fall behind within coursework. Not only does this mean that I will be overloaded with work but I could be penalized with missing deadlines which will not look good on my student page.


-I need to plan my time so I have time to relax and do activities I enjoy. This is important as it ensures that I maintain a strong study and social life and that I will not overwork myself. It ensures that I will be up and alert for the following school day as I will have planned time to sleep. Time management is essential.


Week 2 Review:
- I have successfully fitted into my art timetable well as I know wen and where to be. I have also completed a large amount of work to a good standard to make sure that I am not behind. This goal was completed today, 07/10/15.



-I haven't necessarily completed this goal yet as it is long term. However, I have managed to stay on top of my school work and I have also ensured that I get frequent breaks so I do not overload myself. This goal is still in the process of being completed but I have made good progress. 07/10/15.


-I have completed the majority of this goal, however, there has been a few inconveniences along the way. There was a few occasions in which I did not complete all my work to a good standard. This was because I needed to add more information. I came over this by reading the comments on the documents and adding any information that was needed. The work was re-edited on the 07/10/15. 


- I have successfully managed my time in a mature an successful manner. I made sure that I did as much work within school as possible to ensure that I had procrastination time at home and do I could do other activities such as going out and seeing people. This was completed on the 07/10/15.
