Goals

New face at KiwiCan... we welcomed Seddon today, after farewelling Katie last week.
Owen & Seddon
Last week we talked about goal setting. We recapped what goal setting is and why it's important.

KiwiCan says...
keeping calm and in control, 
helps us all to reach our goals.

We played 'Windy Racer'. We had to move a ping pong ball from one line to another, without using our hands. We had to watch out for carpet burn too!
 
We talked with a buddy about what a smart goal is and what it might be... 
S-Specific
M-Measureable
A-Achievable
R-Realistic
T-Timed

We looked at big broad goals, then moved to more specific ones.

KiwiCan

We are focusing on resilience this term.

Kiwi can says keeping calm and in control, helps us all to reach our goals.

We played 'The rain pours down' game,  where the person in the middle says "the rain pours down on everyone with..." then those people get up and swap chairs. The person left over gets to pick the next thing.
The Rain Pours Down...
We are talking about goals, which ties in really well with the SMART goals we've been setting in class.
We had a great discussion about what we need to do to earn points for our class this term. 
We set a short term goal for the next week, something small that we can achieve. It might be picking up a couple of pieces of rubbish at lunchtime; helping cook dinner; taking the wheelie bins out...
