I LOVE TEACHING!

From the little ones to the adults, I enjoy watching their expressions as their minds expand right before my eyes.

This week, thus far, has been no exception.  We’ve been rockin’ it at the upper school level.  In particular, three young men enrolled in secondary school come to mind.  They quickly grabbed my attention with their unique career choices, passion to share about them in detail, and doubt and resignation about achieving them.  It baffled me!

So, immediately, I created a small group session and we dug right into the matter.  We wrote, we drew, we scratched out, and we drew again until voila.  Each of them now had their very own Goal Chasing Planner™.  With this planner in hand, they were now able to convert their dreams into bite-size goals they could start executing and achieving immediately.  With homework in hand, off they went.

Just when I thought they were simply appeasing me the entire session and biding time until the next bell rang…

The next day, I was approached with a smile and a new attitude.  They had started their homework and were intrigued by the positive results they were already experiencing.

Happy, confident student = happy teacher!

I want you and your son/daughter to have such an experience as well.  I’ve added a basic version of our Goal Chasing Planner™ into our HOME LIVING LEARNING series, “Preparing your home for learning…creating a welcoming space for your child to gain knowledge and understanding” series to help you to get started.

Our Goal Chasing Planner™ helps students to break down large, overall dreams into smaller goals that they may focus on day-to-day.  It has been bundled with our daily planners as a 3-in-1 pack which includes the today planner, tomorrow planner, and the Goal Chasing planner™.

The template features sections for varied learning styles so your son/daughter may best interpret then put into action each step.

Click here to download your copy of our Goal Chasing Planner™ today and start chasing those goals!

(The extended version of the Goal Chasing Planner™, as is being used with my small group of young men over a longer period, will be available soon).

I hope this helps you to prepare, plan for, and execute the required action steps for a successful school year.

Let’s continue to invest in our children as whole beings – fueling their mind, body, and spirit.
Let’s do this!
