lEADER iN mE...

We are implementing "The Leader In Me" in our 4th grade classrooms this year.  I wanted to share with your our newest display for the habit "Begin with the End in Mind".  We had students to write a goal for the year they graduate from high school.  We asked them to think about what they wanted to do or have when they graduated from high school.  Their graduation year happened to be 2021.  We took pictures of them holding their goal and then placed in in the form of their graduation year!  Here is the final product!  We were all so proud of how it turned out.  


What do you do in your school?  I would love to hear from you!

    This looks AWESOME!

    I was just talking with my fifth graders the other day about how they will be the graduating class of 2020! I told them that the decisions they make now (who their friends are, how they treat their parents, whether or not they do their homework consistently, etc.) will impact their futures.

    I love your display idea - I may need to "borrow" the idea :) Thanks for sharing!

      2020 was the kindergarten class I would help out with as a senior in high school. Now I'm a 2nd year teacher! Holy cow how time flies. :)

      Your display looks amazing!! I love this idea too!

    I LOVE this display! Our school is also a Leader in Me school. Don't you just love how the kids start using and talking about the habits each day? I'm going to share your idea with our principal- we are always looking for more ways to incorporate the habits. Thanks for sharing!
