Extensions Lesson 20

Win-Win Agreement Form

Date: Feb 22/10
Project/task: To get help with math in a long term.
Party 1: Me
Party 2: Friend

1. What are the desired results?
My friend gets help in Math in a long term from me and I get to borrow three of her books.

2. What are the available resources?
My knowledge for math and her books.

3. What are the guidelines?
I tutor her for 3 weeks and I get to borrow three of her books, any ones I want and at any time.

4. How will progress be seen? accountability?
See if she gets a better understanding of math and see how her grades are after the three weeks.

5. What are the consequences/ benefits if completed or not?
If completed, she gets better math understanding and grades, and I get to borrow books that I haven't read. If it's not accomplished, then we just wasted our time.

Reflections

Are there any situations at home that could benefit or be guided more clearly by drawing up a win-win agreement?
Well, we can change some chores and actually assign one person to do a certain thing, I think that'll give a little more order in the house. Also, maybe if we help one another, we can get something back. Like saying if my mom needs help with her English, then she can do tonights dishes, that kind of thing. I can't think of any specific thing right now, but I'm sure it'll come around.



My usual blog:

Okay, so today nothing much happened, very balanced day. Oh, got the pictures taken for year book of the library monitors, I hope I don't look too guffy. Also, I have to finish the Lightning Thief today! I've been very late on that, and I need to finish and start the second book, cause one of my friends really wants me to read the series, and I really want to too, so I have got to get a move on!!

That's what my picture says, if any one was wondering! :)
