...identify what I still need to work on.
...justify my college choices.
...set and meet short term goals.
...take brain breaks.

1) Warm Up: KWL (15 min)
  1. Flip to Monday, 5/8's page in your packet.
  2. Fill in the "What I learned" column of your table with what you have reviewed in study groups and in class over the last two days.
  3. Complete the final row in the column to identify what you still need to review. You'll use this over the next few days to set goals.
  4. Share your feedback via the AVID Course Evaluation:

  1. Fill in the 2nd and 3rd goals in the table.
  2. I will set a timer and tell you when to move from task to task.
  3. Remember to tally each time you get off task. See if you notice trends: Does music help? Does your mind wander more when you read notes or do practice problems? 
  4. Snowball Fight:
    1. Write down any worries and stressors you have now on a scrap paper.
    2. Ball this up and throw it.
    3. Continue.
    4. End by throwing your snowball into the recycle bag.
  5. Workshops Today: Need help? Meet with me about any of the following:
    1. Final Revisions
    2. Help Finishing Missing Work
    3. Making Useful Study Resources
