Activity Overview
Sometimes it helps to have visual reminders to help students track the goals they set. One way to do this is for students to create posters for individual or class goals. These posters can be printed, laminated, and hung up as a visual inspiration towards success! Lamination makes it easy for students to fill in their goal trackers (especially if they wish to reuse them), though students can also use stickers or other means to track their goal throughout the school year.
Students can start their posters from scratch, but you can add additional goal setting templates to help students get started.
This example shows a student's reading goals for the school year. We have lesson plans for each of these books that are full of visual activities to help students engage with the text!
