Lesson Plan

Fuel Your Fire Lesson Plan

Students will explore self-motivation, learn why it matters, set a personal short-term goal with strategies, and reinforce concepts through an interactive matching game and a closing group challenge.

Developing self-motivation helps students own their learning, persist through challenges, and build confidence—key skills for academic success and lifelong growth.
