Mindsets

Posted on August 30, 2013 by admin| Comments Off

The first couple of weeks of gifted classes I am going to be getting to know my students and their interest as well as talking to them about Mindsets. Mindsets is based on Carol Dwecks work on how individuals may have a set mindset or a growth mindset. As teachers and parents we want our students to have a growth mindset. Changing how we respond to our students and children makes a great difference in how they respond to challenges. An interesting presentation you may want to read may be found at this link.

Please, please don’t even think about telling your parents that you are bored! Go outside. Catch some fireflies. Play hide-and-seek. Ask your parents what their favorite outside activity was when they were children.

If it’s rainy – I’ve got some things for you to check out.
