Many children and teens get stuck with a FIXED MINDSET. They believe they are "not good at writing" or will never be as good as _________.
Incorporating a "growth mindset into your classroom conversations sends the message that, with support and effort, you can improve your own self.
Growth mindset doesn't stop at grades and athletic ability. It can be applied to anything your students are passionate about. This can be talked about in friendships, in group work, when a student needs to be encouraged to speak up for what is right.
One outlet for is to provide your students with an opportunity to take a risk through goal setting. Each week, I set goals with my students! These goals are academic in the classroom, but I also allow them to take goal sheets home for social/emotional ones too! When goals are met, students display them on "LEARNING CHAINS"
