Goal Setting - Parent 1

Your student is participating in classroom activities helping them learn what a goal is and how to write a plan to achieve the goal. We would love for you to keep the discussion going at home!

Definition: Goal setting is the process of deciding what you want to learn/accomplish and creating a plan to achieve it.

Here are just a few ideas to help get the conversation started:

• What is a goal?
• Does meeting a goal automatically happen?
• What is goal setting? Who do you know that does this?
• How does breaking a goal into small steps help you achieve the goal?
• Share some of your own goals, how you made a plan to achieve them and new goals that you want to make for yourself.
