In advocacy, our theme for January is growth mindset and goal setting. Students are learning what it means to have a growth mindset versus a fixed mindset. We are discussing how a growth mindset helps us learn from mistakes and challenges. Each day, students set personal goals for their learning and behavior. We check in daily to see if goals are achievable and being met. Students reflect on what worked well and what they can improve. We are talking about how effort and perseverance help us grow. Students will listen to stories that show examples of growth mindset. We will work together to create examples of how to use a growth mindset in our classroom. This helps students build confidence and take responsibility for their learning.
