Start the New Year With a Goal Setting Mountain Worksheet
Are you ready to help your students climb toward success this year? Take your class on a goal-setting adventure with our Goal-Setting Mountain Activity Sheet! This printable goal planning template is a fun and meaningful way to encourage students to dream big, set achievable goals, and visualize the steps they’ll take to reach the top of their own personal achievement mountain.
Use this Goal Setting Mountain activity sheet when you want students to identify the steps they need to take to achieve a goal during the new school year. This helps students be accountable for their own learning goals.
Using This Goal Setting Mountain Template
Here’s how the Goal Setting Mountain Template works:
- The peak of the mountain represents the student’s main target. This is the big goal they want to reach — the summit of their journey!
- The mountain’s slopes are for the smaller tasks or actions they must complete to reach their goal. These might include practicing a skill, studying regularly, or showing persistence.
- Each step helps students recognize that every small effort contributes to a bigger accomplishment, even if others can’t see the hard work happening behind the scenes.
We also recommend modeling the process by:
- Collaborating with students to set a whole-class goal. These can either be cumulative goals, or goals that focus on three separate areas of their lives, for example, a learning, a social and a behavioural goal.
- Write a shortened version of the goal in the top section, and elaborate upon this goal in the bottom section.
- Model filling in responses until students feel confident enough to complete the activity independently.
Download and Print Your New Year Goal Planning Template
This new year goal planning template is versatile because it can be a visual reminder while students work. To use it as a reference tool, fold the template in half, paste it in the rear cover of each student’s notebook or folder, and then unfold the top half of the page so that it sticks out from the edge of the book while the students work!
