How we organise ourselves – Organising our Day Reflection

Name: Adarsh

Which Character are you and why?

I am the person who is wearing the white and blue shirt because I think that with a
little bit of practice I could become very organized. I think this because I wasted a
fair amount of time and my plan was a little hard to follow. I occasionally followed my
plan but when I had to re arrange my plan I found it very confusing. I used an
organization model for my plan (SMART ART and Word shapes). I think I balanced my
day quite well but I should have more time in for Writer’s Workshop. I think I spent
more time than needed on my NIST Inquiry with Josh. I should have used more of that
time for writing. The thing that I should have spread out more was math because on
Wednesday I did a math mini-lesson before lunch and after lunch I did problem solving
and mathletics straight after lunch.

What could you do to improve your performance? Set two specific goals

My two goals are:

1. I should have not wasted a lot of time by not sitting next to people who I know that
I will chit-chat with.

2. I should have made my plan more detailed because each section had only 1 are words
with the timing.
