For students around the globe, life seems a bit upside down right now. The structure of their day has changed, where they are learning has changed, and many of them are working alone for hours each day. It might be difficult for them to envision when things will go back to”normal” or when they’ll be able to get back to doing what they love. To help imagine a better future, we wanted to share a few vision board ideas for students in elementary, middle, and high school. Your students will cut out or draw images that reflect their goals, aspirations, and dreams. And with a completed vision board, students will have a positive daily reminder of what is possible even though every day feels the same. Vision Board worksheet for younger students.
