Why Setting Goals Is Important
Many kids view learning skills as a passive activity that just happens with no effort or plan. This is called a fixed mindset. Reflection and SMART goal setting are two essential skills that promote and develop a growth mindset as your students mature.
The importance of goal setting with kids has been well documented. A few of the more significant benefits include:
-
Promoting brain development by recalling situations, emotions, and facts
-
Developing analyzation skills
-
Fostering a growth mindset
-
Encouraging active participation in academic, social, and emotional growth
-
Promoting effort, practice, hard work, persistence, and self-confidence
When your kids are actively engaged in their learning,
they are significantly more motivated to achieve a skill!
What Are SMART Goals?
"SMART" is an acronym that leads your students through a step-by-step process of creating achievable goals. Your students will become discouraged if a goal is too involved or unrealistic. SMART goals break down the goal-setting process into easy, manageable pieces that provide a scaffold to success!
