Goal Mapping Relay Activity

Objective: Partner to expand and refine action steps for a SMART goal, promoting collaboration and critical thinking.

Materials:

• One fresh Personal Roadmap Template per team

Setup: Arrange students into teams of 3–4 and place roadmap sheets at each table.

Instructions:

1. Each team selects one member to start with their Personal Roadmap Template.
2. Round 1 (1 minute): Student 1 writes one specific, actionable step toward the SMART goal.
3. Pass the Sheet: On cue, students pass the roadmap to the next team member clockwise.
4. Subsequent Rounds: Each student adds one new action step during their turn. Continue until each student has contributed.
5. Refinement (2 minutes): After the relay, teams review all steps, discuss clarity and feasibility, and refine any vague or unrealistic actions.
6. Share-Out: Invite one representative per team to briefly share a standout action step and a refinement they made.

Teacher Tips:

• Model a sample relay turn to demonstrate level of detail expected.
• Monitor teams, prompting them to make steps specific and measurable.
• Provide sticky notes or colored pens for students to flag steps that need revision.
• Time each round strictly to maintain pace.

Time Allotment: 10 minutes total
