Set New Goals With a One Word Project 🎯

Kick off the school year with a focus on growth with a Just One Word Project! This engaging activity encourages students to think about the qualities or achievements they want to focus on throughout the year and condense them into a single, significant word. By choosing a one-word goal, students will gain daily motivation while developing important social-emotional skills, such as self-awareness, self-management, and goal-setting.

This Just One-Word Project is perfect for helping students transition into a new school year or term.

You’ll ♥ This One Word Goal Setting Activity!

Our One Word Goal Setting Activity for Kids is more than just a creative project—it’s a full reflection and planning exercise. Students will:

• Identify their one-word goal for the school year
• Reflect on why this one goal is essential to achieve during the year
• Plan the steps they need to take to achieve their goal

To make the activity even more fun, we’ve added a template so that students can create a One-Word Goal t-shirt design that visually represents their goal. This hands-on activity allows students to express their creativity while reinforcing their commitment to their goal.
