Listen Later

New Year's resolution or one word or both?


In this episode I discuss how having your students choosing one word for the year can help you and them learn more about themselves culturally.

I also share 7 fun and insightful activities you can complete with your students to help them decide on a word for the new year.

Didn't get a chance to jot down those activities? No problem, HERE is a blog post where I talk all about them: https://customteachingsolutions.com/the-power-of-having-your-students-choose-their-one-word-for-the-year/

Just in case you want to read the YouGov Survey HERE is the link: https://today.yougov.com/topics/lifestyle/articles-reports/2020/12/23/2021-new-years-resolutions-poll

If you are interested in completing this activity with your students, but are pressed for time to collect all the materials, HERE is a link to my lesson. I include a PowerPoint lesson for students, student activity sheets, print and go cards with adjectives, pictures, emotions, and quotes. Just click, print, and facilitate!

I love to talk, so let's start a conversation.
