Goal Work: Today the students reflected on the extent to which they feel they accomplished their goals. They also reflect on which of the goal setting steps they felt they were most effective at and which they could have done more effectively. Regardless of to what extend they achieved their goals, all the students felt that they learned about goal setting and attainment!

Happy Habit #7 - Sharpen the Saw or Balance
The story we read explained the importance of feeding our mind, body, heart, and soul. If we neglect one of these aspects of our self we become out of balance. You wouldn't continue to use a saw without ever sharpening the saw. Check out your child's notebook for ways in which they can keep themselves in balance. The book that I used for the happy habits lessons was The 7 Habits of Happy Kids by Sean Covey. For more information on the 7 Happy Habits, check out The Leader in Me website.
Mindfulness: Throughout the past seven weeks, we have been practicing mindfulness and focus exercises. For more information on using mindfulness with kids check out The Hawn Foundation website or my Minds On Learning blog.
