  2. My plan for this school year is to balance school work and extracurricular activities in a way that I am both meeting my highest potential academically, all while remaining a well rounded person socially. My goals for the year are to improve my organization and time management skills. I also procrastinate excessively, so I also hope to minimize that bad habit. This year I want to grow not only scholastically, but also on a more personal level with finding new passions and hobbies to pursue. I am not sure what my space jam moment will be quite yet, but I hope that with hard work and perseverance, I am able to accomplish whatever it may be.

  3. This school year in biology I have goals to succeed. I want to obviously want to do good with my grades and keep up with my work and turning everything in on time. More than grades this year I want to genuinely understand what i'm learning. At the end of the year I also want to be able to have a handful of tests I feel I did well on.

  5. My goal for this year is to try my best and not just go through the class. I am planning on trying my best and not be lazy about my work. Working hard for good grades will be what I work towards. I want to really understand what is going on in science this year.

  6. My goal for this school year is to learn how to manage my time well and to not dwell on past mistakes or failures. From this year I would like to really get into the rhythm of high school and how to manage to do all sorts of classwork, homework, and extracurriculars. From this class, I would like to gain a better study skillset and how to keep information locked in. I’m hoping that my Space Jam moment this year would be that I can maintain good grades and keep low stress because in the past years I have maintained good grades, yet I was always super stressed and couldn’t manage my time well.

  7. This school year, I plan to do my best work in Biology. I will value the things that I learn in the classroom instead of just ignoring. Studying and working will be big parts of my school year this year, not only in order to maintain a steady grade, but to get something out of this class. My goals consist of developing a system in which I can manage my school life and keep it organized. Biology is one of the classes where learning and comprehending is very important to me, and the lessons I learn in the next year will be helpful for science classes in the future, and maybe even a career. I want to have a reason to be excited to learn, and to be motivated to succeed. Nothing less than my best work will go into this class, and I want to be satisfied with myself at the end of this year, instead of regretting what I didn’t do or what I could’ve done better.

  8. Some goals I have for this year are to take risks that I would not usually take, push through the hard times, and create new things. Some things I want from this class are to persevere and to learn. The main thing I learned from the video is that sometimes failure leads to good and new things. I also what to find a good balance between sports and school. I want to find new things and new people. I mostly need to study hard and manage my time well.

  9. My goal for this year is to be more bold and outgoing, and to put some more effort and thought into my schoolwork. Although ive always tried to see failure as a learning opportunity, I have always had issues with putting myself down after a failure, so thats something im looking to change. -Michael K.

  10. My goal is to get the most learning out of Biology possible. Obviously I want to get good grades on homework, tests, and overall in the class but that comes hand in hand with the understanding of the subject. Biology seems very interesting just because a lot of things are intertwined with biology. The labs I also heard are very fun and interactive so I am very excited for that this year. Also with the knowledge I don’t want to just learn it and forget it after I am tested on it I want to retain the knowledge I learn from this class so I can use it if I ever need to after this class is over.

  12. My biggest goal for this year is for this year to at least be better than last year. Last year I was very stressed and unorganized, I didn’t use my time wisely which lead to stress and as a result poor grades and. This school year I plan to be more organized by using the free time I have to get ahead and do whatever work I have so that when I’m busy with extracurriculars I do not get behind. I want to hold myself accountable, and I want to do the best that I am capable of in Biology. My Space jam moment this year will be by scoring high on the final, which will be the accumulation of a semester’s worth of hard work, as well as my knowledge on the subject. I plan to reach this Space Jam moment by focusing hard all year, and by keeping myself one foot ahead of the game.

  13. One of the goals I want to accomplish is trying out everything this year has to offer and feel good about it. There are many opportunities that life grants us and only some of them lead to success and happiness so why not try everything. All I want from any classes that I take this year is knowledge about new things. I think of knowledge as an indicator of what a person has experienced and learned from these experiences is what would help anyone grow into a better human being. No matter what happens this year I will take it on headfirst and make sure that I enjoy every bit of it along the way.

  14. My plan for the school year is going to be try my hardest and if I fail that's an experience. I especially want my school year to go good in Science I say this because I have never really been any good at Science and hopefully that changes in Mr.Craigs class. I want a good experience from this class I want to build a good relationship with another teacher to have that bond that I think is really important to a good school year. My “Space Jam” for this year is to be a good overall student and also put focus into Soccer.

  15. My goal for this year is to become a more well-rounded person in general. I want to find a better way to balance my academics, extracurriculars (especially athletics), and social life. I want to have good grades in school and work on not procrastinating as much as I did last year. This could be a challenge because a great deal of my time is spent at sports practices and socializing and I get distracted very easily. This year in Biology I want to make it my priority to focus in class so I can get as much out of the material as possible because, after all, the Earth is filled with life. I do not know what I want my Space Jam moment to be yet, but I think that if I achieve my goals, I will be closer to figuring it out.

  16. My goal for this year is to focus in school more and get better grades and GPA. Last year wasn't good for me grade wise and i want to change that. My space jam moment for this year is getting at least a 3.0 GPA. I want to learn more about science and explore more about biology. I especially want to be able to own up to my mistakes and be accountable. I really want to work on not procrastinating because that is what messed with me last year. My main focus is paying more attention and caring more about my education

  17. My plan and goal for this school year is to improve my time management skills and be able to balance my social and personal life with my school work. I tend to procrastinate, and, in turn, miss out on really cool opportunities. I also want to get involved in more extracurriculars like clubs so I feel more like a part of Arapahoe. My goal is to get out there and meet new people, gain new experiences, and be more social. I want to grow as a person by taking this class and have a better understanding of the world around me. My “Space Jam” moment this year will me trying to conquer my shyness and become more outgoing as well as focus on my mental clarity by taking care of myself by doing things like sports, exercise, and getting school work done efficiently.

  18. My goal for this year is really to be fully academically responsible, and successful. Last year was difficult for me in terms of keeping my grades up, mostly in math. I can't wait for bio this year, because I can't wait to explore the different things and topics biology has to offer. Not sure what my Space Jam moment is yet, but I'll find out soon.

  19. My goal this year is to push myself in and out of the classroom is very important for all sports I play at this time. I play a sport every season fall, winter, and spring. My goals are to make the honor roll, but want to do better this year than I did last year. I want to push myself to be the best I can be. I want a better g.p.a this year I want to be the best me. In biology I want to learn these new concepts, but more importantly I want to understand them more. My space Jam moment will be me pushing myself semester to semester finishing every day not giving up.

  20. Last year, I stressed myself out so much worrying about everything being perfect, however my time management skills with sports and extracurriculars were not great. This school year, I plan to be more organized when it comes to what needs to be done first. From this year, I want to keep a good balance between academics and my social/sports life. I am going to try multiple other activities this year to see what I am interested in. I hope to gain new relationships with others and find something that I enjoy doing when it comes to getting involved outside of sports. One of my other goals is to stop worrying about failing and keeping in mind that growth is more important. More specifically for this class, I hope to maintain good grades and to actually retain all the information that we learn this year, not just go through the motions. So, my Space Jam moment this year will be to be more organized with my time and workload, which will then help me stress less, get involved in extracurriculars, and to make sure I’m having a well-rounded academic and social life so that I can enjoy my first year of high school.

  21. My goal this year is to follow in the steps of myself, but take the steps I wasn't able to last year. I hope to make all A's, which, although I did last year, was much easier. I also hope to support my team in Cross Country more than I did last year. Lastly, I want to further involve myself into FBLA, more so then I did last year.

    ReplyDelete
  22. My goal this year is to improve myself by getting better grades. I would like to get straight A's in order to relieve some stress on myself for the rest of highschool. By the time I become a sophomore I would like to play varsity soccer, and play as a starter. The last goal I have for myself is to become involved in one more activity outside of school, maybe tennis or another sport.

  24. My goal this year is to at least maintain my GPA, but I especially want to get an A in my AP Human Geo class. I think if I do that I could actually impress my parents with my grades for once. I also am going to strive to make JV lacrosse this year. I think I have a good chance at this because of how well I played last year, but I will still need to improve a little to make JV.

    ReplyDelete
  25. One of my goals for this year is to turn in all my work. Last year I struggled with that. So, this year my goal is to stay consistent with my schoolwork. Another goal that I have is to get a 3.8 GPA or higher. It's going to take a lot of work but i just have to do my best. Other than getting good grades, I would like to understand what i'm learning. I just need to focus. From this class, I would like to get an A, of course. But I really want to learn more about biology because im not really familiar with the subject. I think my space jam moment will be that I won't give up; even when school gets hard. And I will persevere in my classes.

  26. My goals for this year are to balance all my classes homework and to use my off hours to complete assignments so I have more free time at home. I also want to organize how much homework I have better so I don’t forget about any assignments which has lead me to use my planner more often. What I want from this year is to first of all learn in all of my classes but also find a system of organization that is effective so I can continue to use it in the future. What I want from Biology this year is to just learn more about how different organisms operate and how they impact our planet. I really don’t know if my Space Jam moment will be doing something amazing or just getting an A in the class, but I want to work hard and stay motivated through this school year.

  27. My plan for this school year is to be able to balance my school life with my after school sports. Since I don't have much time after school to do work because of my after school activities, I will need to make sure I am using my off hours wisely and don't use all of them just to mess around with my friends. I would also want to make sure I am keeping my grades up this year so my GPA does not fall down. This year I would also like to make sure I am doing my best in all of my classes and just not going through them and not try as hard as could be trying.

  28. This year I need to make sure I balance my time to be a well rounded person. This year my goal is to finish my school work on time and put forward my full effort, but also not stress over if something isn’t perfect. From this video, I can apply that failure is not always bad and can have benefits. In the past I have procrastinated immensely therefore leading to stress near due dates, so my goal is to avoid this, this year by getting homework done during off periods and on the bus. I also need to learn that I can not control what others do, how hard they work, or how much they do on projects. I can only control what I do. I also want to form relationships and get involved. This is a great opportunity for me to branch out and meet new people while I would still like to not lose touch with other friends.

  29. In the past I have always put off my big assignments until the last moment and then stressed about getting them done before the deadline and I want to change that. So my goal this year is to stop procrastinating and to get my work done right away so that I don’t stress about it and produce high quality work. From this school year I want to get as much out of my classes and learn something valuable and try my hardest. Also this year I want to grow in both an educational standpoint and in an athletic way. My plan is to keep my grades and GPA up in all of my classes. From biology this year I want to learn new things that I never learned or even heard of before. My Space Jam moment this year will be to never give up and try my hardest along with balancing my academic and extracurricular activities.

  30. My goals for this year and semester are to try my best in every class to keep an A both semesters. This year I want to keep up with all my assignments and to actually be engaged and excited about what we are learning. From this class I want to keep an A, the only class I struggled last year was science because it is not one of my strong suits but I hope to change that this year. My space jam moment will hopefully be understanding and overcoming my struggles in science.

  31. During this year of Biology, my goal is to get good grades and have a complete understanding of the content we learn this year. To complete this, I would enjoy being in an engaging, fun, and interesting environment. I wish to achieve this because of my passion for biology. Finally, just being in class and learning about this interesting topic will be my space jam moment.

  32. High school...a new year, a new school, new people, new classes, new opportunities, a new start. High school should be the place where people forget about all the stupid things that were stressed over in middle school and start being real. Now, I will strive to be my best self, something I did in the past, only now not looking to the next week or year but to the future. I wish to become someone who is not defined by one thing, but many great things. My Space Jam, a moment to never give up and make something great out of failure, is to grow as a person, no matter what others think. I believe that this will come at some point this year or in the near future when I do truly fail, something that I am not accustomed to, and have to deal with it. I want to enjoy every moment and opportunity brings, embrace everything, and keep negativity far away. This includes branching out, trying new sports, new clubs, and meeting new people, all while maintaining good grades and relationships. Biology should be a space where we can all, as a class, learn about something that is interesting and enjoyable, with hands-on learning and discussions that are meaningful. I am very excited for this class, science being my favorite subject. So to do all things, as kid president says, we need support from others who are kind and respectful, and a world unlike the one that is currently causing all of us pain and anxiety. I think we can all “Be the change we wish to see in the world.”

  33. My goals for this year would be to be able to learn from the many mistakes that I make and other people make. From this year I want to know more about what I want to be when I get older. From this class I want to have fun and learn more about science. I don’t know what my Space Jam moment this year will be and no one does know because we can’t predict the future yet...as far as we know.

  34. This year I want to do well in biology. I want to get good grades, but more than anything I want to understand what I am being taught.I want to work my hardest and give a lot of effort so I can accomplish my goal, but at the same time I still want to enjoy biology and have a fun time. That is my space jam moment this year.

    ReplyDelete
  35. This year in biology I hope to learn and grow as a student by making mistakes and learning from them. I want the experience and knowledge to help me with career decisions and college courses. I want a challenging and fun class, a place where I can learn and grow but still enjoy the time spent in the class. Enjoying every class will be my spacejam moment.

    ReplyDelete
  36. This year in biology, I want to grow as a student and get good grades that I'm satisfied with. I want to put in the work and strive in the classroom. I just want to be excited for biology everyday and not dread it like some class I hate. I want to have a great experience this year and I hope biology gives that to me. That's my spacejam moment.

    ReplyDelete
  37. My goal for this year is to be proud of myself no matter what. I want to know that I tried my best no matter what the outcome might be. I want to learn from my mistakes, not being upset over them. Being proud of myself and having fun in this class will be my space jam moment.

    ReplyDelete
  38. This year I am going to make sure that I get every assignment that I have done before the due date. Last year I would always procrastinate and wait until the last minute and then I would find myself having to do a lot more catch up work than if I were to not wait last minute. This year im going to be the best that I can in school, paying more attention, getting all of my work done on time, making sure I study for an upcoming test or quiz, and being more organized with all of my school work. Now that we have been through one year of highschool we know what it looks like and finding the changes you need to make in order to make this school year and better school year then last year. My Space Jam this year is going to be knowing that failures are ok and it giving you other chances of trying, getting all of my school work completed that need to be completed, and organization.

  39. Biology is just one of the classes I would like to earn an A in, seems pretty far fetched since last year I didn't really get those. As long as I try, do my dues, and get help if and when needed an A doesn't seem far fetched. An A is just a step to a better GPA, a better future, and a better career. If I don’t get an A in every class that's fine as long as a tried. As long as I know that I did everything I could to try to get that A. My long term goal is to finish high school with a 3.5 GPA or higher. I don’t want to make the same mistakes I made last year, so this year I am going to do my homework and assignments as soon as possible so that a don’t procrastinate and forget to do them. I also want to be able to finish all my tests feeling like I did good, and not be scared or worried for finals.

  40. This school year I have many goals for myself. Many goals that can help me better myself and understand content past just getting A's. Although I do have goals to do better academically, I would rather be getting something more out of a class. I wanna do something better with myself than just go to class everyday, show up, and do the work. I wanna be present and talk to people and make someone's day. Because that is what is going to benefit me long term, and I believe I can do that all while getting a good grade. I want to work harder than I ever have in school and by the end of high school I want to be able to say, "I did everything I could to get where I am right now."

  41. This year in biology I would like to not only become more informed about sciences and assignments, but find better ways to accomplish tasks. I will work hard in all my classes ensuring that my overall grade reflects my learning this year. I also want to branch out, for this is a time to try new things and meet new people. In athletics I do not only want to be encouraged, but be taught and coached on how to become a better athlete. Finding the best way to manage my sports and schoolwork is also very important, for I am a STUDENT-athlete. Of course I have the dream of getting perfect scores on all of my work, but knowing I will fail I want to make the best of the failure and find ways to turn that feeling into dedication and soon into success. Overall, my space jam for this year is controlling failure, and making the transition to achievement.

  42. My goals in Biology are to maintain an A and also do well in all of my other classes. I am a three sport athlete so I also want to make sure I have a good balance on both working on school work and sports. I want to learn more about biology and really try to excel in science. My space jam moment might be failing a test or not doing so well on an assignment but working on it and making my skills will make me a better student and athlete.

  43. My goal for Biology this year follows the path of my goals in the past. It continues to take shape by maintaining a 4.0 GPA throughout the year. In order to make this happen, I will have to put in more effort and a better attitude towards science. Science has never been my favorite subject, but I am willing to put in the work and time for the end game. I want to attend CSU honors engineering program, and although science won't have a huge impact, I will still need to get the best possible grades because acceptance for the honors program requires a GPA of 3.8 or higher. I am working hard this year to balance good grades and enjoying the proccess during sophomore year.

  44. This year my goal is to find a balance between school work, being social, and playing sports. I want to not only focus on getting my work handed in on time and being organized; but I want to start asking more questions. I want to really understand the material i'm learning to make it a little easier when taking tests. I'm not overly focused on just getting the grade I want,but to make an impact on my learning. I need to get into new habits that will help me in the long run; like not procrastinating, and finding time to talk to teachers. I'm going to try my best this year and stay focused on my goal. -Lillian Benson

  45. My plan for the year is to stay organized and get straight A’s. My goals are too especially do well in english and science because they are the subjects I need most work on. I want to have lots to say about this year, sophomore year is supposed to be the most fun. I want to be able to say that myself by the end of this year (going ot even more events, meeting even more people, getting all the grades I worked for). I want an A in biology and also some new things learned. My Space Jam moment will be getting all A’s.

  46. This year my goal is to achieve new things and do things I've never done before. I have always been an adventurous person but now I really want to get out there and live a new a different life. I want to join clubs, make art and music, get a job, explore nature. I want this year to bring new opportunities for me and I want it to teach me how to be smart, kind, and hard working. I want to strengthen my connections with friends and make new ones. I want this class to teach me what I need to know about life! Since life is one of the mist fundamental parts of our existence. My Space Jam moment will be the day I am able to wake up and look at all the creative things I've done and then, feel proud of myself.

  47. My goal this year is to push myself in and out of the classroom is very important for all sports I play at this time. I play a sport every season fall, winter, and spring. My goals are to make the honor roll, but want to do better this year than I did last year. I want to push myself to be the best I can be. I want a better g.p.a this year I want to be the best me. In biology I want to learn these new concepts, but more importantly I want to understand them more. My space Jam moment will be me pushing myself semester to semester finishing every day not giving up.

  48. This year, my goal will be to get a 4.0 GPA. I'd like to learn the balance between working hard and overstressing myself. Even if I don't accomplish my goal, I'd like to not beat myself down over and and instead handle it with self grace. For Biology, I'd like to improve my understanding of science. Science has never been my strong suit, but I'd like to improve. ALso, I'd like to strength my relationships with friends.

  49. My plan for the school year is to succeed in everything I do. School obviously comes first, but in addition to getting good grades and being a good student in general, I also want to succeed in sports. Another important goal I have for the year is to adjust to the school and the people around me. Although I already feel like I know what I’m doing and feel at home, I still feel that this school has more to offer than I’ve discovered already. My Space Jam moment for this year will hopefully be that I can balance sports, good grades, and everything else while maintaining a relatively low amount of stress and still finding time to have fun with friends.

  50. The space jam of my year is going to be completing my goals, such as better grades, athletics, and worth ethic. I would love to make Arapahoe better at basketball, and I hope to make varsity and make it better. I also wish to get better grades, and hope I will be able to do all my homework without being asked. I want to become a better person, who makes everybody happy, and I want this school year to be one of the best that ive had, and I can’t wait for the year to start!

  51. My plan for this school year is to balance school, volleyball, friends, family, and work. To potentially do all of these things, I want to be able to do well in academics, and still be able to do outside of school activities. My goals are to understand biology and ask for help if I need it. I can’t procrastinate because it causes a lot of stress for me, and this year I don’t want to be stressed out with school work or homework. I would like to have good grades this year and work my hardest to do that. I am hoping that my space jam this year will be to succeed with good grades, and to find a healthy balance between school, extracurricular activities, work, and family/friends.

  52. This year in Biology, I want to learn lot of stuff about Biology. I want to get an A and I am going to work really hard. I hope that this year I learn how to study more and better. I want to be challenged so that I can become a better student and that I learn better study habits. I want to work in all of my classes and learn a lot this year. A goal that I have is to get all A’s this year.

  53. My goal for this year is to at least get a 3.5 gpa both semesters. My other goal is to have no missing assignments. What I want from you this year is just be clear so I understand you and be fun. My space jam moment will be me not giving up and keeping good grades through the year.

  54. My main goal is to really focus on my academics, getting great grades and doing well in sports this year. I feel like sophomore year is more of a base than freshman year is when you are in high school and is one year away from junior year which becomes very important. Every year and day of high school counts which is why I can’t waste any time away from focusing on my goals this year. I will be trying to succeed on and off the field, and on and off the court.

  55. My goal this year is to finish with a better GPA than i did last year. I want to really focus on school, but not lose out of social and athletic opportunities. I need to make good decisions and realize that school is 1st and social and athletic activities come 2nd.

  56. My plan for this school year is to balance my academics with my extracurricular activities to create a healthy schedule for myself. I hope to improve time management by getting things done when necessary, and to decrease my procrastination. This year I want to grow as a friend and student. I would also like to step out of my box to create healthy habits and new hobbies. Lastly, I would like to work my hardest without stressing too much.

  57. My plan for this school year is to be positive throughout the year and to be able to balance my school life and getting good grades with me getting back into playing soccer. This semester I also only have two off hours so I am really gonna need to use the two off hours I have wisely. My goals for this year are to have all A’s and to work my very hardest in every class. I also don’t want to be so stressed out on everything this year. Last year when I tore my ACL I stressed myself out way to much with not being able to do sports and with school. I don’t want to be so stressed out about tests and to study very hard for them all. My space jam moment for this year is to work my very hardest and to not just give up and to also work my very hardest in getting back into soccer and to not get so down when I can’t be where I was at before my ACL was torn. I have a really good feeling about this year and am going to be as positive as I can throughout the whole year and to make the very best out of this year.

  59. This year I want to make it my goal to be engaged in every class and participate. I want to have fun and learn at the same time. I also want to stay organized and get good grades. My goals for Biology this year are to learn about topics that really fascinate me and not to worry about my grades but my learning. I want to find something that i’m interested in and take my learning beyond this class, and maybe find a career path that I want to follow. My space jam moment this year will be to balance my in school and out of school life as well as build some new relationships.

  61. This year I plan on pushing myself to get every assignment not only done but, done before the due date. I plan on being more active in using my planner this year, writing everything down and doing it as soon as I can. This year I plan on taking more time during my off periods to do homework so I have more time after school to hang out with my friends and for free time. I have volleyball everyday after school and things like team feeds, games, and school events to go to so using the time given at school will help. I want to keep my grades up above B’s this year, so I will be as active as I can during class. My space jam this year is knowing that if I mess up this year academically or not that is okay, I can always try again and push myself harder than before.

  62. My goal for this year is to balance both academics and sports. I spend most of my time each day at football practices, so I try to find time to do my school work. I also would like to understand biology, rather than just forgetting it as soon as I’m done with the class. It seems like a very interesting subject and I want to learn more about it. The labs seem like they will be a lot better than last year and pretty fun too. I would also like to get the same GPA that I got last year which was a 3.8.

  64. This year, my plan is to push myself outside of the classroom. What I mean by this is that I have never really studied or put a lot of time into homework, so my plan is to work hard outside of school to make this happen. I will be doing this by setting aside time for homework and studying. My goal is to become a good student inside the classroom and outside of it.What I want form this year is to better myself as a student as well as a person in an academic area as well as outside of the academic area. I want from this class to be able to understand science at a biology level to better prepare for next year’s science. My spacejam moment this year will be to strive to get a 3.6 GPA or better, and I am willing to push myself to accomplish it.

  65. This year my goal is to make the most of my freshman year by balancing homework, sports, and having a social life. I will be doing a sport for Arapahoe for each season so I will need to make sure that I don’t procrastinate on my homework and that I get it done as soon as I can. One of my main goals is to stay on top of things and not fall behind. For example, doing my homework ahead of time and advocating for myself when i need help. This year I would like to improve on procrastination. I usually wait until the last minute on assignments and then I have all this homework piled up that I need to get done. I would like to start studying for tests sooner and getting homework done sooner as well. I would also like to improve on self advocating. All of teachers are willing to help, and I want to feel comfortable going in and getting help when I need it. I am going to try my best at everything even when I think I can’t. My “Space Jam” moment will be getting work done sooner so I have time to get involved at Arapahoe, like going to school events, and participating in sports.

  66. My goal this year is to not procrastinate on every assignment, so I can get a better grade on each of them and make them slightly less stressful to complete. I also want to be better at organizing all my papers and keeping track of when my assignments are due. I’m going to learn as much as I can and work really hard in all of my classes. I want to earn an A in each of my classes and improve my GPA. My Space Jam moment will be working really hard, so that I can achieve these goals.

  67. My plan for this year is to work hard and balance school work, sports, and my social life. I am not going to focus on mistakes made in the past and I’m going to stop procrastinating because it makes me stressed. If I am having a hard time with an assignment I will ask for help instead of putting it off to the side, and I will work until I understand what I am working on. I want to feel like I have succeeded by the end of this year and met the expectations I have set for myself of getting good grades and doing my best work. My space jam for this year is to never give up and keep working even when it's hard.

    My goal for this year to be successful is to not get behind on assignments. I want to not procrastinate so I can do things outside of school and not be stressed. When I struggle I will use my resources so I can have a better understanding. I also need to work on behavior responsibility so I can play basketball. To be successful I want to study more for tests and be more organized. I will attempt have a good attitude and be open minded to help me understand concepts that are hard. My space jam for this year is to excel in school and basketball to the best of my ability.

  69. My goal for this year will be to put more effort into my classes. I want to make sure I am getting all of my homework done for every one of my classes. I want to study for every single test really hard so I can get good test scores. I also do not want to procrastinate. I need to do all of my homework when it is assigned and not at the last minute. My Space Jam moment this year will be when I get all A’s and B’s in my classes.

  70. My goal for this year is to meet new people and become a better person and student. I also want to work on balancing all of my sports and school work with other fun opportunities that high school brings. I am a pretty busy person and often miss out on things because I have other commitments already in place. I want to be able to balance these commitments with social events too and not have to always tell my friends “sorry, I’m busy”. Also, with so many new people here at this new school, I know that there are some great people out there and I want to focus on meeting them. This year I want to be a kind person to everyone and be hard to upset. I have found that when I do this, I am often much happier. I will not only be helping others but also helping out myself. From this class, I want to learn more strategies for high school and learn important lessons. My Space Jam moment will be being able to find the perfect balance between the things I love to do now and the things I want to do with high school along with homework; it will be not caring about trying to prove myself but instead just being me.

  71. My Space Jam in this class is to understand everything taught and start off Highschool right. I now know from previous students the right start is key to highschool. If I have the right intentions to learn and focus then highschool will be easy. By balancing my school work and sports I will learn to keep my life together and learn how to plan. I know it will not be easy but I also know I can do my best.

  72. My goal for this school year is to branch out and try new things. Since I am coming from a small middle school, I would like to make new friends and form relationships that I can count on. In order to get the most out of my freshman year, I am going to work hard to not procrastinate and thus learn the material more than simply memorizing it. My goal for this class is to get a solid foundation in biology that I can apply in the coming years of science. My Space Jam moment this year will be forming positive habits that will stay with me through high school and beyond.

  73. My goals for the school year are to be academically successful and to put my full effort into my school work. I plan on making honor roll this year and push myself to be the best I can be. Last year I didn't try very hard on my work and would procrastinate until the last minute and I plan on changing that this year. I think my “Space Jam Moment” will be accomplishing all of my goals and to balance my life inside and outside of school.

  74. My goal this year is to learn and understand all the concepts taught. I also will put in my effort to get all A's.

I will try to gain more knowledge and also fail in the process.

  75. This year I plan to push myself to do the best that I can on every assignment and test. I plan to study a couple days in advanced instead of the night before. My goals are to get good grades and balance school with cheer better than I did last year, but at the same time have fun. This year I plan to work hard to achieve my goals. This year I want to succeed and strive to be a better person/classmate. My "space jam" moment will be accomplishing my goals and balancing cheer with school.

I want to learn as much as possible in biology and i am excited to make it a good year.

I hope to accomplish many things and become a great student. Overall, my “Space Jam” for this year is to improve my grades and learning.

My last goal is to try my hardest to make someones day when they looks down and make a few new friends and get to know them. Also to stay true to my self and always be who I am

  84. My sophomore year i want to try the best I can in school. My freshman year I didn’t really try and this year is the year I want to change that. I also wanted to be more organized so that I can know when everything is due and where all of my classwork is. My space jam this year is going to be that there is no giving up and trying the best that I can do.

  85. This year I want to be able to participate more and good a good grade. I tend to be someone quiet in class and don't always participate as much as I should. I would also like to be able to keep track of assignments better and not procrastinating as much which will also help my grade. My space jam this year is going to be keeping on top of things and not falling behind.
