Goals

• Clear ideas, plans or purposes

• Dreams

• Short term

• Long term

• Something to work for

• Vision

Begin by discussing goals with your students. Explain to them that goals are something they have to work for but should be clear ideas, plans or purposes. It is their dreams – a vision they have of themselves in the future. Short term goals can be achieved quickly like writing an essay for class, cleaning their room or reading a book. You feel good when these things are accomplished. Long term goals take planning and commitment and can be divided into a series of smaller goals. Achieving a high score on the SAT, being accepted into the college of their choice, graduating from college and beginning their dream career are examples. Ask your students for more examples. Allow students to commence working on graphic organizer.
