A new year is a natural time to stop, look ahead and pick something to work on. Breaking a goal into small steps, saying who can help, and coloring in the days of January turns a wish into a plan. Keeping the letter until June turns it into something to look back on.
Five pages on handwriting lines. Page 1: draw and write a goal at school, at home and just for fun. Page 2: plan one goal: why it matters, three steps and who can help. Page 3: a January tracker laid out from the real calendar. Page 4: a letter to myself to open in June. Page 5: a habit to start and a habit to stop.
Share a goal of your own first, and talk about the difference between a wish and a goal you can work on. Keep the goal plans and letters in an envelope, and hand them back in June to read and talk about how the year went.
Pick a family goal together, such as reading a book each week or a walk after dinner, and color the calendar together as you go.
Goals for the new year, from goals at school, at home and for fun to a plan with steps. Students draw and write their goals, plan one step by step, track it through January, write a letter to themselves to open in June and think about a habit to start and one to stop.
