Holidays provide a chance where we can reflect on our routines and habits. The end of Semester 2 2024 report can also draw attention to organisation, time management and other areas of learning that may require deep reflection and action. Sometimes, it will become apparent that these habits and routines of the previous year have not served our ambition, our growth as learners, as well as we would like, and therefore a commitment to a new approach is made.
Trying a new approach, a new way to be organised prior to class or to manage our time is great if we are clear as to what it is we want to improve. What is the Why? Why are we trying something new? What is the goal? What is the motivation?
Having a goal that the habit will address is important in helping to maintain the motivation. For parents and guardians it can be difficult to know how to offer support with the motivation needed to develop a new habit.
Our work with Elevate Education, who will be running time management sessions on Wednesday 12 February for our Year 7 and 12 students, includes access to free webinars for parents and guardians on a range of topics. Their first webinar is on ‘Motivation: how to get and keep your child motivated.’
