7th Grade Learning Habits-Tess

The learning habit that I had chosen was initiative. I have been working on improving this skill. This is a challenge for me. It used to be that my parents would constantly be telling me to do my homework or to do a better job on it. But lately, I have been working really hard on taking the initiative to do things on my own. I am making time to do homework, even if it means spending a lot of time on it. I am focusing really hard on it. I am doing things without my parents telling me to and I am being more independent with my schoolwork.

A learning habit that I need to work on is attention to detail, and more specifically, organization. This is a very big problem for me. I am often being careless with paper, losing papers, and getting them crumpled up. This is something that I really want to work on. Sometimes this can lead to me forgetting homework, which is not an option. I want to get new plastic folders, ones that don’t fall apart, and place papers in the right folders.

2017-2018 Learning Value

The learning value that I chose this year is initiative. This is important to me because I think I an really improve in this. I can work really hard because it is one of my biggest challenges in school. I chose this because I think it is a very important skill to have. To be able to take the initiative to do things without being told, and doing your best work is very important. It can help me do good work, and not have to be constantly told to do things. I will raise my hand, make sure to study as much as I can so I can really improve. I will always take the initiative to copy down whatever is on the board. Although all of this is sometimes a challenge for me, I think if I work on it hard enough, I can be a better student.
