It is almost New Years. For many of us that means we will be
making New Year’s resolutions. I am hoping mine will last longer than it did
last year. I haven’t had much success in the New Year’s resolution department.
Even so, New Years is a great time to talk to our students about goal setting.
Some students will want to set short term goals such as: paying better
attention or completing all of their homework. Other students will want to set
long term goals such as scoring well on standardize tests or getting into the National
Honor Society. I have created a New Year’s crown you may use as you and your
students discuss short term and long term goals. Your kiddos may write their
goal(s) on the front of the crown. Then, they should cut both the front and the
back piece out along the outside edge. Next, they will put glue on the gray rectangles
on the back piece. Finally, they will connect the back piece to the front
piece. Click here to get your FREE New Year’s crown!
