Lesson Plan

College Quest Lesson Plan

Students will learn what college is and why people attend college by exploring visuals, playing a memory game, and creating a paper college campus, building early awareness of higher education goals.

Introducing college concepts in kindergarten demystifies higher education, plants seeds of aspiration, and supports long-term goal setting. Early awareness fosters motivation and positive attitudes toward lifelong learning.
