1. Before the end of Friday’s class, I need to complete at least three tasks. The tasks are: 1. Finish citing my sources 2. Finish my intro 3. Start my conclusion 2. I am confident about completing my paper because… I have finished it!!!!!!!!! 3. I am confident in completing my presentation because… I have already finished my slides and I believe my presentation is right on track, and where it needs to be at this moment in time. 4. I am confident in completing my project because… I have already interviewed my topic expert and it is complete. 5. If I could go back in time and change my time management, I would have started my paper a bit sooner because I became stressed when it was not finished. 6. For now, my top two priorities for this cause are: 1. Finish my paper 2. Look over it 7. During my nine day Thanksgiving break, I plan to complete: 1. My paper, and have my Dad edit it 2. My final presentation 3. Practicing what I am going to talk about when presenting 8. When I return from break, I believe I will get these things done: 1. Final works cited 2. Including my project into my presentation 3. Preparing for my actual presentation
 * Cycle#4**

1. During my nine day Thanksgiving Break, I tentatively plan to complete the following three major tasks: a.) My paper, and have my Dad edit it: **I looked over my paper to see if I missed any simple, grammatical errors. I did not have my Dad look over my paper because as I read it, I realized that I am pretty confident in how it is written.** b.) My final presentation: **I completed my PowerPoint and made sure it is ready for my December 11 presentation. It is saved in my “Senior Sem” folder on my H-drive.** c.) Practicing what I am going to talk about when presenting: **I looked over my slides and started brainstorming what I am going to say. I am going to be making index cards about each slide, to help me practice, within the week.**

2. Upon returning from break, I foresee having to complete the three following major tasks: a.) Final works cited: **I have already completed my works cited and saved it to my “senior sem” folder in my H-drive.** b.) Including my project into my presentation: **I will be making index cards to incorporate both my project and presentation. This will help my presentation go smoother.** c.) Preparing for my actual presentation: **Once again, creating index cards and practice my presentation by looking over these note cards every night.**

3. Before my final class meeting this week, the following three specific tasks will be completed: 1. I will complete the final edit to my paper. 2. I will organize my note cards, for my presentation. 3. I will examine all aspects of my presentation and make sure they are being completed.
