Bead to Achieve

 

This week at After School To-Go, students took time to reflect on the semester and plan for the future. Girls created colorful keychains – a physical representation of their hopes and dreams at all stages of life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Girls were given colored beads to create their keychains. Each color represented the different stages of education: from middle school to career. After adding a bead to their keychain, students discussed a goal they wanted to meet at each level. Some goals were making all A’s, joining an interesting club, or traveling with family.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The final bead represented the friends and family that would help them achieve these goals. By thinking about their goals, writing them down, and creating a plan that involves loved ones, Girlstart students are more likely to achieve their dreams!
