Target Setting

Hi! Here's the reflection on target setting.

Q1) What is the purpose of setting targets for the various subjects?
The purpose is to see which subjects you are poor at and revise more of those subjects.

Q2)Do you think this is useful? If 'Yes', why? If not, why?
Yes, I think it is useful as we set the targets to strive for better results and make you be the best.

Q3)How did you go about setting the targets for yourself?
I will compare the results last year and set the targets myself.

Q4)What are you doing to help you achieve your target? Do you have a plan? If so, what is it?
I am going to listen in class, do my work and hand in my work on time. I plan to do as many test papers or assessments as I can during my free time and not play so many games.

Q5)How are your parents helping you achieve your targets?
They are giving me tuition.

Q6)What will you do to motivate yourself towards achieving the targets?
I am going to to my best during the exams and strive for my targets.

Q7)What do you think your teacher/the school can help you achieve the targets?
I think that they can help me by giving me a little more homework for me and they will explain those things that we do not know.

Thank You for reading I also hope to see your reflections soon!

Total Defence Blogging Competition

Total Defence Day is important to each one of us as it makes you think that everyone has a part to play to defend Singapore for example the National Anthem, your friends or family. So now I am going to tell you what am I going to defend.



As the Singapore's flag is important to us, I decided to defend it. I think that the five stars means equality, democracy, peace, justice and unity. As you know peace means that we live with peace without any riots among our different races of people living in Singapore. I am going to defend them by rasing them high up during our school assembly and be proud of it.
