"We have talked about SMART goals a little bit, and you have even tried to create your own.
Today, we're going to do a little practice assessing other people's SMART Goals - to make sure that we really know how to set them; and also, so we can check each other's goals and make sure they are SMART.
"Write your name at the top of the worksheet I handed you, and get ready to write down your answers to the following questions. Try your best, but do not talk until I tell you to - you will get a chance to check with your partner after every few questions."
"Ready? Here we go."

S = Specific
"The 'S' in 'SMART' stands for 'specific.' This means that the goal is detailed and broken down in a way that anybody can understand it.
"For example, a Specific Goal would be: I will turn in all of my HW assignments on time next week."
"We know what 'all HW assignments' means, so it is specific. If it said, 'some HW assignments,' that would be a problem, because different people might think 'some' means different things."
"For the next three examples, write down whether you think they are Specific or not (just write "Specific" or "Not Specific")."

1. I will get good grades.
(for each slide, read out the goal and ask, "is this goal specific, or not specific"?)
2. I will do my work in class.
3. I will read three chapters from my novel every week.
Switch papers.
"Switch papers with your partner. Mark their answers correct or incorrect based on the next slide."
Specific or Not Specific?
- Not Specific
- Not Specific
- Specific
"After you have checked each answer, hand the paper back to your partner and take two minutes to discuss why each goal is, or is not, specific."
(time discussion for 2 minutes; at time, have volunteers share out their reasoning; be ready to help out if they are unclear)

M = Measurable
"The next letter is 'M' for 'Measurable.' This means that your goal has clear numbers or amounts in it, so that you can know exactly if you achieved it or not."
"For example, the last goal, 'I will read three chapters from my novel every week' is measurable because I can count the chapters I've read at the end of the week and know if I have accomplished the goal or not."
"If I just said that 'I will read every day this week', that is NOT measurable, because I do not know how much I need to read for it to count."
"Let's see if these next goals are measurable or not."

1. I will eat a salad for lunch twice a week.
(read the goal out loud and ask, "Is this goal measurable, or not measurable?")
2. I will do push-ups every day.
3. I will work on HW for one hour every day.

A = Assignable
"A stands for 'Assignable.' This means that it is clear who is responsible for the goal. In the case of your SMART goals, this is just going to be YOU, so that's easy.
"However, when we start making GROUP goals, this is going to become really important.
"For example, when we form Family Groups, an 'assignable' goal might be, 'Each member of our group will do three push-ups each day.' This is assignable because we know exactly who is responsible for carrying out this goal.
"If we just say, 'our group will do three push-ups each day,' we are not sure if just one person could do all three, or if we all should do one, or what. That goal is NOT assignable.
"Try the next three examples."

1. "I will run three laps tomorrow."
(read the goal, ask if it is "Assignable" or "Not Assignable")
2. We will turn in 75% of our HW this week.
3. Our family group will turn in 75% of our HW this week.

(time discussion for 2 minutes; at time, have volunteers share out their reasoning; be ready to help out if they are unclear)
(for 2 and 3 - they are NOT assignable because it is unclear if every individual should get 75%, or if they can do that, on average, etc.)

R = Realistic
"R is for 'Realistic.' This means - are you really able to achieve your goal? Or is it way too hard and setting yourself up for failure?
"For example, a realistic goal is based on your current abilities, so 'I will do 5 push-ups every day this week' is realistic if you are able to do a push-up now.
"However, doing 5 push-ups every day is NOT realistic if you can't even do one push-up yet. Then you should change your goal.
"Let's practice."

1. (for somebody that hasn't turned in any HW)
I will turn in 100% of my HW every day
(Realistic or Not Realistic)
2. (for somebody that hasn't turned in any HW)
I will turn in 50% of my HW every day.
3. (for somebody that gets sent to the office twice a week)
I will only get one office referral this week.

T = Time-Related
"T is 'Time-Related.' This means that you know exactly how much time this goal is for - and when you can check it to see if you have achieved it.
"For example, 'I will have all B's or better by the end of Trimester 2' is Time-Related because I know that I cannot reach my goal until the end of the Trimester.
"On the other hand, 'I will get all B's or better' is NOT Time-Related, because I do not know if achieving that this week is enough for me to say that I reached my goal.
"Let's practice"

How SMART are these goals?
"In a moment, I am going to show you 5 different goals. For each one, you should check all the different 'SMART' categories that it fills.
"Let me show you a quick example."

"I will not get in trouble this week."
"So, if I got this example, 'I will not get in trouble this week,' I would have to decide if it is Specific, Measurable, Assignable, Realistic, or Time-Related."
(next slide)
(next slide)
"I will not get in trouble this week"
- NOT Specific
- NOT Measurable
- IS Assignable
- Realistic?
- IS Time-based
"My answer?
"It is NOT specific because a random other person wouldn't know what 'get in trouble' means. With the cops? Getting a deduction? Sent to the office?
"It is NOT measurable because there are no numbers to measure from.
"It IS assignable - 'I' am responsible for the goal.
"There is not enough information to know if it is realistic - and since it is not specific, I still may not know with more information.
"It IS time-based because it is focused on this week.
"Any questions? Okay - now you try."

Share and Discuss.
"Now give your partner's paper back to them and go over each Goal. Why were the correct answers what they were? How could you change each one to make it fully SMART?"
(give class about 5 minutes to discuss and write notes; after that, have them share out their fixes to make each goal SMART)
(when done, go to next slide)

Your Turn.
"For the rest of class, each of you needs to come up with 4 SMART Goals:
2 Academic Goals
1 Behavior or Social Skill Goal
and 1 Personal Goal
As you finish each one, check them to see if they fulfill each 'SMART' category, and then have your partner check, as well. You are going to use these goals for your Individual Learning Plans, which you will share at Parent Teacher Conferences after Thanksgiving break.
"Go ahead and start working on these, and let me know if you have any questions."
