The document discusses choosing a single word to define yourself for the year. It encourages selecting a word that describes your ideal self or character traits you admire. Students are asked to make lists of character traits and action words, then choose one word to represent themselves. They define the word using dictionaries and find supporting quotes and images. Students write about why they chose their word and how it reflects their hopes for the year. Their words will be compiled into a class book and digital movie project.
