Sample setting and tracking goals questions

Read each situation and choose the smartest way to set or track a goal. These examples come from the Easy setting; every generated worksheet draws a fresh set.

  1. A goal works best when it is realistic, meaning it is:

    Challenging but possible for you · So easy it takes no effort

  2. Your goal feels too hard and you're discouraged. A wise move is to:

    Make the next step smaller and keep going · Blame the goal for being unfair

  3. You want to improve your math facts. A trackable plan is to:

    Just think about math more · Practice 10 problems a day and check your speed each week

  4. The main reason to track a goal over time is to:

    Stay motivated and know if you're on track · Prove others wrong

Check the sample answers
  1. Challenging but possible for you
    Realistic goals stretch you without being impossible.
  2. Make the next step smaller and keep going
    Shrinking the step keeps you moving instead of quitting.
  3. Practice 10 problems a day and check your speed each week
    A specific, measurable plan lets you see real improvement.
  4. Stay motivated and know if you're on track
    Tracking keeps you encouraged and shows your true progress.

Practice focus

A good goal is clear, measurable, realistic, and has a time frame, so you can tell when you have reached it. Breaking a big goal into small steps and tracking your progress keeps you motivated and shows what is working. If you miss a day or feel stuck, you start again or make the next step smaller instead of quitting.
