Counselor's Corner
This month we’re focusing on goal setting and creating a growth mindset. Goal setting is important because it helps students identify what they want to work toward and how to take small, realistic steps to get there. Setting goals builds motivation, confidence, and a sense of direction both in and out of the classroom. Growth mindset ties into goal setting and with a healthy growth mindset, goals are easier to accomplish.
Parent Tips to help your child create goals:
• Help your child break goals into smaller steps
and create a simple plan.
• Encourage them to keep trying when things
feel difficult instead of giving up right away.
• Share a time you had to work through a
challenge yourself - kids need to know we've
all faced challenges and how we walked
through those challenges.
Take care,
Mrs. Irvin
