Are you ready to start the New Year off right with your students? You will find everything that you need to create meaningful goals for the New Year. Quick and easy setup plus a complete pack of goal-setting activities in Google Slides, an Easel Activity, and a PDF version to print.
Setting goals in the New Year is a great way to look ahead at what is still to come in the school year while also reflecting on the best parts of the past year.
Here’s what you’ll get
- A trifold brochure that gives students a chance to reflect on the year by writing and illustrating their favorite moments. Students will also look forward to the new year by making goals, writing a resolution, and brainstorming new things to try in the upcoming year.
- A poster for students to color and complete gives them a chance to create personalized goals for the upcoming year.
- A choice of two decorative buntings makes great classroom decorations for the New Year. Students can draw a picture of themselves in the New Year as well as set goals for the upcoming year.
- Students can create a New Year’s resolution and read a short informational page about New Year’s resolutions.
- New Year’s cards to write about the upcoming year. Could be used for students to write on or as notes from teachers to students.
- “Happy New Year” bulletin board letters to print, cut, and display.
- A 10-page digital notebook includes all goal-setting activities on digital slides.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Betty P. says, “I love all things that are visually appealing but equally engaging with content/questions. So many resources are great with one thing or the other, but this was great all around! Loved that I could assign the Slide Deck to my students during remote learning!”

Another resource to love by Two Little Birds! I haven’t had the chance to utilize all of the materials in this resource, but love the ones I did. We choral read the New Years Resolution page and had a discussion about it. Then we set a goal or two and completed the because portion. I decided to have the plan for the resolution as a different day so they could really focus on the sections. Loved it and have used it multiples years in a row!
