New Year’s Resolutions Paragraph Writing (Grade 2-4 Language)

This Grade 2-4 New Year’s Resolutions Paragraph Writing activity allows students to set goals for the new year. It is a perfect activity for back to school after the winter holiday break. Students will learn about what a resolution is, reflect on the previous year, and write a resolution (including 3 ways they can work towards their resolution and why it is important to them).

This resource does not state the current year, so it can be used for New Year’s for years to come!
