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.

• Nonverbal

• Listening and speaking
• Reading and writing

Copyright © Texas Education Agency, 2015. All rights
reserved.
The ability to communicate clearly and positively is one of the
most important skills in work and life. Verbal means using word in
language and word choice. Nonverbal means without words includes
body language, facial expressions, posture, hand gestures and tone
of voice. Listening is an active process and you must pay attention
when you listen to someone. Speaking occurs whenever you say
something and includes the word you choose, your posture, and your
tone of voice. Reading is an important way to learn new information
such as the employee handbook, guidelines, checklists, and
information on a computer screen. Writing includes using a keyboard
on a computer to enter information, reports, and ordering supplies.
Basic arithmetic and mathematics needed to use a calculator and
computer. Electronic communication includes computers, cell phones,
two-way radios, pagers, and hand-held computers (tablets). Wireless
devices and e-mail are also necessary to fulfill many
requirements.
