Three New Years Resolutions
- must be practical, achieveable, measureable
- related to (1) academic (2) social) and (3) health
e.g. I will eat healthier each week by packing an orange and a salad, two times a week
This term, I will review all the work that Mr. Kwok posts on the blog so I can study and prepare for tests. Every evening, I will spend at least one hour doing my homework and study for future tests
As I promise Daniel, I will try to be nicer to all my students and staff by being polite and more gentle talking to them regularly.
