A new year. A new chapter.

The daily “My New Year’s Resolution” section encourages students to choose a meaningful, achievable goal. Students can keep the same resolution throughout the month and reflect on their progress. A bonus goal-setting page helps introduce this routine.

Each page also includes calendar information, weather and season observations, a “Today I feel” check-in, and an encouraging message.

Easy to use: Choose an undated page, allow approximately 20–25 minutes, and review together. Model unfamiliar skills, read directions aloud, and offer manipulatives or word banks as needed. Students can complete unfinished writing later.

Use for morning work, bell ringers, guided review, homeschool practice, or substitute plans. Designed for second grade, with flexibility for advanced first graders or third graders who need foundational review.

TEKS connections: The included guide identifies selected Grade 2 expectations related to phonics, reading comprehension, written responses, sentence editing, place value, computation, and word problems. Goal-setting and weather extensions provide additional opportunities for supported learning and discussion.

Meaningful practice, fresh beginnings, and woodland wonder—from Live Oak Learning.
