Are you ready to have your students take complete ownership over their learning and behavior? If so, you will need to focus on teaching about the process of making SMART goals! SMART goals can be created any time of the school year, NOT just in January, for New Year’s.
Using a race car theme, students will “REV” their engines and “DRIVE” to reach a new goal!
