#1 Think-Pair-Share: Setting and tracking goals is an essential part of your success as high school students. Think about your experience in high school so far, what are some goals that you have set for yourself and where are you in achieving those goals. Now turn to your partner and share your thinking:
What is one goal that you have set for yourself while in high school? 
Did you achieve your goal, if so, what steps did you take to achieve the goal? 
If you are still working toward the goal, what steps do you need to take to achieve your goal? 
#2 Think-Pair-Share: OneGoal is a program designed to help Fellows think about their postsecondary aspirations and work with them to meet the goals they set for themselves. Think about your answers to the following questions then turn to your partner and share your thoughts:
What is your current postsecondary goal (i.e. college, career, etc.)?
How can OneGoal help you to reach your postsecondary goal? 
What is one academic goal that you have set for yourself this school year (i.e. GPA, SAT, etc.)? 
How can OneGoal help you to achieve your academic goals?
#3 Think-Pair-Share: As a OneGoal Fellow, you will oftentimes need to lean on your Program Director (PD) or cohort members for support in working toward your goals. Think about a time when you had to lean on someone else for support. Turn to your partner and share your thoughts:  
Who was that person?
Did you feel comfortable asking for help?
What type of support would you need from your OneGoal cohort in order to lean into them for support? 
Now that you have discussed your goals with your partner, create a OneGoal BioPoem!

Please create your specific SMART goal for the week. We will be checking in on our goals on Friday.

DO NOW: In a comment, please respond to at least one of the following prompts:
What does it mean to be vulnerable? What does it look, sound, and feel like?
Who are you most comfortable being vulnerable with? What does that person give you in that space? What do you give them in return?
How do you approach difficult conversations? What role do you think vulnerability plays in difficult conversations (for example hurt feelings, race, or identity)?

1. RESPOND IN A CLASS OR PRIVATE COMMENT: Think about a time when you were in a space where you felt seen, heard, and valued. This might have been a classroom space, a sports field or court, a club or activity, a religious space, your home, or some other space. Take a moment to visualize the space and remember how you felt there. Reflect on the following questions:
Briefly describe the space you were visualizing.
How do you know that you were seen, heard, and valued in this space?
What were other people saying or doing that made you feel seen, heard, and valued?
Please use the entire 3 minutes to journal within a class or private comment.
2. We will now read the following poem attached two times out loud.
3. Utilize the Google Doc attached to facilitate the rest of the day.

1. I will break you up into partners. Be prepared to share a little bit about yourself!
2. Select 5 questions from the list provided. Take notes on what your partner says. Be prepared to share out and introduce your partner to the class.

1. Reflect on the following question within a private comment: "My name is/is not a good fit for my personality because..."
2. Open the reading titled, "Names & Identity - Jennifer Wang." As we read, I will stop after each paragraph. Make sure to underline places within the essay that you connect with or comment with a "?" in places where her experience raises questions for you.
3. We will then break into small groups of three. Each person will be assigned a role: Facilitator, Summarizer, or Note-Taker.
4. If you are summarizer, be prepared to share out and discuss your answers! These questions will help us structure our discussion:
What could Wang's teacher could have done to make her feel more welcome in class?
What could other students have done to make Wang feel like she belonged?
What is important to know about each other in order to work together as a classroom community this year?
5. Complete the Teach the Teacher Exit card.
