Setting goals for a child’s journey is a powerful way to guide their development and track progress over time. On LoveHeart, you can easily set, manage, and review goals to ensure each child’s learning is supported and tailored to their unique needs. This guide will walk you through the steps to effectively set goals for a child’s journey.
1. Click on the "Journeys" button
2. Click the "+" button at the bottom right corner of your screen
3. Type to find or create a child or you can select the arrow at the end of the child's name to start a journey for that child.
4. To create a Journey for the child you have the option to choose one of the following:
Start with a goal
Set a goal later but set the due date now. This will take you to step 6.
Do not set a goal or due date for a spontaneous & open-ended journey. This will take you to step 7.
5. If you selected "Start with a goal", then you will need to write a goal and add a reason for this goal. If you need some support click on the magic stars and LoveHeart will give you a suggestion based on the child's learning and development. Once you have created the goal, click on "Next".
Tip: Coach Sue will offer some suggested goals that are linked from the child's assessments. The date next to the goal will let you know when the goal was suggested by Coach Sue. Once you have selected a goal, click on "Next".
6. Set a timeframe for the journey to be completed. LoveHeart will offer you some suggestions or you can click on the calendar to choose your own date.
