Each student will create a smartphone flipbook that showcases their goals in style! With colourful prompts and a clever phone design, this New Year Goal Setting Template helps students think about making growth while adding a pop of fun to your classroom.

Assembling Your New Year Goals Template

Putting together this New Year Goals Template is quick and easy! Here’s how to make it happen:

1. Print and copy the goal-setting templates as a stapled packet — one per student.
2. Have students complete the prompts, colour, and decorate their pages to personalise their ‘phones.’
3. Cut out each part of the template, keeping the tab on the left intact.
4. Stack the pages in order, with the cover on top.
5. Staple the left side to create a neat and flip-friendly smartphone booklet.

Once students finish their goal-setting ‘selfies,’ turn their creations into a fun classroom display! . The finished flipbooks make for a bright and inspirational showcase of your students’ goals — and give students a daily reminder of what they’re working toward throughout the year.
