Learning Objectives continued from class worksheet

On further introspection as to why it is important for me to give students the opportunity to find hidden talents in my classroom I came up with the following reasons:

1. It is imperitive for students to find out that they have a talent. Everyone needs to know that they are good at something. Students need the confidence, self-esteem boost, and recoginition of their talents for them to develope their own identity.

2. Students need to be given the opportunity to develope their talents and identity. The students need to know that there are some things that they are just naturally better at than other students. This helps students see that they have a purpose, a reason to get up in the morning; which leads to having goals, developing dreams, and looking to make future plans.

If I can give students the opportunity to grow as individuals and allow them to find their strengths, I can then help them develope those strengths so that they can utilize them within the classroom and then even later in life.
