Instructional Ideas

• When setting up a group project, have groups come up with their own mission statements to guide and structure their work
• Have learners write out mission statements at the beginning of the year; they can check their progress at regular intervals during the year

Classroom Considerations

• This is pretty basic, but there is plenty of space for students to write, and it includes prompts to get kids started
• See the materials tab of this resource for an editable version, as well as a version in another color

Pros

• Comes with a Word document version as well as a PDF version if you want your pupils to type their statements

Cons

• None
