If you're looking for a quick and colorful board for the new year, check out this hot air balloon themed design! The positive message reminds your students that the sky's the limit and we think it would be great if you paired it with a goal setting activity for the the new year!
Goals for 2013
Invite your students to reflect on what they did well in the first half of the year as well as take a look at areas where they might need improvement. Reading comprehension. Turning in homework on time. Whatever it might be, have your students write down two or three specific things they'd like to work on the last half of the year.
To display their new goals for 2013, have your students complete a hot air balloon craftivity. We linked to a fun template that we created for a previous post {you can find the full feature here --> Up, Up and Away! | Summer Bulletin Board Idea}. Our only suggestion would be to use the template to create miniature booklets where, when folded along the side or top, the balloon serves as the cover and the inside can be used to display student goals.
