“Engaging middle schoolers is not always an easy task. My students loved being able to work on their computers and have a digital activity. So glad that I purchased this!” - Faith C.
“I loved using this resource! It was a great way to ease back into school after winter break. I will be teaching the same students again this year, and I look forward to reviewing their goals with them at the end of this calendar year.” - Becca S.
“This definitely got my students thinking! They learned the importance of setting goals and understanding how to achieve them. Many students came to me at the beginning of the next year and talked about how they were still working towards their goals. Bravo!.” - The Sparking Pineapple
