 * Level 6 morning class: **

This summer Level 6 students created PowerPoint presentations on the topic of “Goals and Strategies to Achieve Them.” To learn about this topic, the students first discussed what success is and wrote definitions in groups. Next, the class read stories of athletes (including an Australian runner and Lance Armstrong) and a local success story about a Fallbrook chocolatier. Students also watched and discussed two movies about goals, //The Pursuit of Happyness// and //Cool Runnings//. They wrote paragraphs discussing success traits, setbacks, and strategies of the people they read about and saw in the movies. For their PowerPoints, students had four specific topics:

· their own short term goals and strategies · their own long-term goals and strategies · quote—choose a quote about goals/success, paraphrase what it means and tell why you chose it ·  famous person—discuss his/her area of success, any setbacks and his/her success traits

The materials used and the work created by the students has been collected in a notebook in room 111 for you to see.
