A1 A goal is achieved; a dream-while wonderful-tends 2 b 'out there.' 2 make a dream 'real,' give it timetables & ask 4 spprt
A1: A goal is something that is over arching, but obtainable. It is also that should be measurable.
yes-when we make our dreams actionable they can become goals https://t.co/mBYHX6HBQN

measurement means we can see if our goals are achievable-otherwise they are just wishes https://t.co/xMHGvXWKVv
A1: A goal is something that is over arching, but obtainable. It is also that should be measurable.
A1:goal is something that is more tangible at the particular time being made &a dream/wish is it not as concrete at that moment
A1:Maybe because a goal can be measurable, spaced into short and long term goals.
like the "at that moment" add-we need to know that dreams can become tangible when we make them goals https://t.co/Ysl4pVhiA3
A1:goal is something that is more tangible at the particular time being made &a dream/wish is it not as concrete at that moment
, a1, a goal is something you set in order to reach a dream, it's important to dream big but take smaller steps to get there
awesome you could be here Mrs. Xander!
A1 you set a plan for a goal and a dream is a wish or a thought ... "someday."
right on! small chunks make our dreams more actionable https://t.co/fDZLLyoHoC

Q1: a goal is something you are working to achieve where a wish is something you hope will happen
Hey Chandler! awesome to have you here tonight
Ss practiced goal-setting every qtr. We made goal doable-raise hand once per class; say something nice once per day
our 2nd question is about to drop
we need to have hope but if all we do is hope with out action our dreams never materialize https://t.co/6GTLbkM9cu
Q1: a goal is something you are working to achieve where a wish is something you hope will happen
great to have Ss set goals that are obtainable-creating small wins builds positive cultures https://t.co/3Uyadaee1m

A1: goals are wishes that have been developed into measurable steps to ensure attainment
it is important to have a goal, but it can change
A2: Goals can evolve. What you think you want might grow into something else via inspiration/new info/personal evolution.
A2 Goals must be able to be changed. When we grow, goals change. Modeling goal change shows Ss that they can evolve
A2 The path to the goal can change over and over! If the goal is changing due to lack of perseverance then the path must change
A2: Goals can be flexible to be able to achieve them.
, a2, most things in life don't go as planned, I always (or usually) try to be flexible, reflective and open.
Hi! I'm Lisa, a1, a goal is something you work for but a wish is what passes you by.
self-reflection on that path means that we are open to the shifts in our thinking that can occur https://t.co/txGcRYdz72
A2: Goals can evolve. What you think you want might grow into something else via inspiration/new info/personal evolution.
hey Lisa glad you could join!
our goals change as we get closer to achieving them https://t.co/RXqyV4jL76
A2 Goals must be able to be changed. When we grow, goals change. Modeling goal change shows Ss that they can evolve
A2: Formal like in an Eval then no. Instructional goals in my class then of course I shift it based on formative assessment.
& some paths lead us 2 dead end. We must teach Ss dead-end is not wasted time, but lrng opportunity https://t.co/3LgZk6odOK
A2 The path to the goal can change over and over! If the goal is changing due to lack of perseverance then the path must change
Goals should be reasonable and attainable, but fluid to allow for change.
do you think there is a time that a goal shouldn't be changed? https://t.co/CsUnTXJDrz
A2: Goals can be flexible to be able to achieve them.
Our last question is coming up
Our last question is coming up
Follow up Q2 quesiton: When we reach goals is that it? do we just forget them & move on? or modify?
What is up tweeps? Justin 4th grade teacher here from late due to an game! What's up ?
A2: I don't necessarily feel like big giant goals change, just the steps needed to get there once our perspective grows
reasonable is huge-many times lofty goals are honorable but we often don't meet them? https://t.co/FRY5gAGDWg

A3: Completing a Masters Degree. It took time, money, resources, a loving and caring wife, supportive peers, and GRIT!
my goal was to earn my cert in administration. I am going to be successful because I worked hard and kept moving forward
It would depend on the goal. When I set goals w/admin then no I can't change them. https://t.co/eQ0sSSzt9i
