Lesson Plan

Goal-Getter Guide

Students will articulate personal academic and community goals, share them with peers through a carousel activity, and reflect on one word that captures their aspirations for the year.

Setting goals and sharing them builds classroom community, fosters growth mindset, and empowers students to take ownership of their learning from day one.
