How to teach the Goal Setting Process

Every year I find myself trying to figure out a good way to show students how to set goals, why it's important to do so, and how tracking the goals fits into all this. Oh and did I mention I am trying to do this with Kindergarten through fifth graders?!! It's seemingly impossible. Or so I thought. I THINK I have found a way to do this without totally confusing them, and make it entertaining as well! It's going to require you to look a little silly, so be warned!

School Counselor Brochure

After 8 years as a School Counselor I finally did it! I made a brochure for my parents! My hope is that parents will be able to see my roles in the school and utilize me in the best way possible. I want them to see me as resource, and not just a "Guidance Teacher." Hopefully you will find it helpful as you develop one for your parents.
