Academic Pennant Assignment

Hello Students!

Here are the instructions for the Academic Goals Pennant. If you have any questions, please email me at timpfm1@dearbornschools.org . Due on September 14th, by the end of bellwork.

Academic Goals Pennant

1. Cut construction paper into a triangle. It should about the same size as your notebook.
2. On one side, create a college logo. You may choose to draw the logo or cut it out of paper.
3. If the logo does not already include the college name, write the name on the front on your pennant.
4. On the back of your pennant, write “My language arts goal for this school year is…” and complete the sentence. Next, write “Three Steps I Will Use To Accomplish My Goal” and list the three things you want to do this year to help reach your academic goal.

Reflection Component: On a separate sheet of loose-leaf paper, answer the following questions. Remember to be thoughtful! One sentence answers are probably not well-thought out enough.

• How will my plan (your three steps from your pennant) help me achieve my goal this school year?
• How will achieving my goal for this year help me in high school?
• How will achieving my goal for this year help me in college OR in my career?
• What can Ms. Timpf do to help me follow my plan (your three steps) to achieve my goal?
