New Year, New Goals Adventure

Lesson Plan

New Year, New Goals Adventure

New Year, New Goals!

In this lesson, Dreamers will explore the concept of setting goals for the New Year through a fun and interactive activity. This lesson is important as it introduces young learners to the idea of personal growth and achievement in a way that is accessible and engaging for their age group. By using a blended learning approach, we can cater to different learning styles and keep the children actively involved.
