One Word for 2014
Over the winter break I read about a project titled One Word.
One Word is a movement. "It's all about forgetting resolutions and scrapping a list of goals that are easily forgotten. Instead One Word asks participants to choose just one word that sums up who you want to be or how you want to live. One word that is the focus every day, all year long."
I really thought it would be interesting to involve students in the One Word project. After much discussion on the new year and this project, students were challenged to choose a word.
The words ranged from silly and fun to quite thought-provoking.
Flip books were created to record each student's word. The hope is students will discover the big impact one word can make.
Could this one word become the compass that directs decisions and guides steps?

Happy 2014!

Can you send me the template for the ONE WORD? Our 5th grade has to present this at our faculty meeting.
