Lesson Plan

Autumn Goal-Getter Blueprint

Students will engage in autumn-themed activities to build classroom community, reflect on past successes, and set SMART goals for the school year through collaborative icebreakers, journaling, and an exit ticket.

Starting the year with connection and purposeful goal-setting boosts student engagement, self-awareness, and a growth mindset—setting the tone for a successful 10th-grade experience.
