New Year’s Goal Setting Activity

Keep each student working towards their own, personal goals close with this crafty goal setting activity – making an individual DIY Goals Board.

Goal Setting Hanger Craft Acitivity

Simple to make from just a few, common craft materials, each student can decorate their Goals Board to suit their own personality and interests.

And the completed project can be hung at home or in the classroom as a visual reminder for each student – to keep striving to reach their goals.

DIY Goals Board: Student Goal Setting Activity

You will need:

  • 6 jumbo craft sticks
  • 2 regular craft sticks
  • Paint and paintbrush – if desired
  • Paint pens or markers
  • Pipe cleaner
  • Hot glue
  • Optional decorations, such as small pom poms, sequins, glitter, gemstones, stickers, etc – if desired
 

How to Make a DIY Goal Setting Board

1. Line up the six jumbo craft sticks evenly, so they are lying horizontally side by side.

2. Apply an even layer of hot glue to one side of a regular sized craft stick and glue it vertically across one end of the jumbo sticks (as shown below). Repeat on the opposite side.
