The second graders have come back from break refreshed and ready to start the New Year. The second graders came in very excited to discuss what they did over their break as well as what they are looking forward to. This lead us into the discussion about New Year’s resolutions. The students discussed that a resolution is a promise / goal that a person makes to themselves to achieve in the New Year. This idea then sparked a lot of discussions around resolutions people have made in the past, along with ones that they have made for the New Year. This eventually lead us into the idea of working on resolutions for 2020 and reflecting on our 2019 year.
During this project, students filled out a 2020 web listing:
“My New Year’s Resolution”
“Something New I want to try”
“The best part of 2019”
A self-portrait of themselves for 2020
Some of the resolutions that students made were:
“Waking up earlier so they can get to school on time.”
“Making new friends”
“Trying new foods”
“Listening more in class”
We look forward to watching the second graders take on these resolutions and continuing to grow in the New Year!
