Currently, I am running Ubuntu 18.04.03 on a 1TB hard drive and I would like to move Ubuntu to my 256 GB SSD for booting. I would like to put some files on the SSD and keep some on the HDD as well. Furthermore, I would like to keep Windows on the HDD. What is the best way of doing this process? (There is nothing on the SSD that I would need to keep.)

EDIT: There is also a copy of windows on the SSD. I would like to copy over Windows to the HDD before I format the SSD.

Below is an image of my disk partitions in Gparted. System Partitions

Here is the output of fdisk -l (the part about partitions).
