3. Setting Goals  What is a goal?  A goal is something we want to accomplish and get better at. It may also be something we want to change.  Have any of you ever made any goals? If so, what were they?

4. Goals  It is important to set goals. When we set goals it should be something we can achieve but it makes us work hard to get there.  There are two types of goals that we will talk about today.  Short –term goals  Long –term goals

5. More About Goals A short-term goal can be to learn a new habit that you can do right away. An example of this would be try one new vegetable a week or 15 more minutes of playing outside a day. A long-term goal is a new habit that you would like to reach by a certain time such as the end of the school year. An example of a long-term goal is getting an A+ in Math class by the end of the year.

6.  I want everyone to take out a piece of paper and write down 1 or 2 short-term goals you would like to reach and 1 or 2 long-term goals you would like to reach.  If you would like you can share them with the class. Let’s Set Some Goals
