My goal for this year is…” Incorporating
the school motto, “Effort Creates Ability,”
Mrs. Funk and her students discussed how
hopes, dreams, and goals can come true
with hard work, giving forth one’s best
effort, persevering, learning from mistakes,
and taking time to think about how
behavior can help achieve these dreams.
Students will keep their writing prompt
until the end of the year to reflect not only
on how they are meeting their own goals,
but how they may be helping friends
achieve their goals. Examples of second
grade hopes and dreams are:
• To do better at math.
• To be a better reader.
• To make new friends.
• To be a scientist.
• To not give up.
Goals are displayed for reinforcement
throughout the year
