COUNSELOR'S CORNER
This month’s counselor lessons will focus on learning how to develop a growth mindset and apply strategies to make effective plans to reach goals. Some goals of this unit include students being able to set a goal, make a plan to reach the goal, identify and overcome roadblocks, and develop strategies to improve confidence.
