Have you ever had one of those parenting moments where you realize you thought you had taught your kids something, but realized you actually never had?
I realized recently that my daughter doesn't know what being flexible means. I say it to her all the time and I always thought she understood what I meant. Today my son was a little cranky, so I asked her to be flexible. As I watched, she continued to be inflexible.

I finally asked asked her "What do I mean when I say be flexible with your brother?" She said "be nice". While I think it's good that she knows to be nice to her brother it's actually not what flexibility is all about.

What exactly is flexibility in people? It's not about being physically flexible, but more about having a flexible brain. Part of it is being nice but it's so much more than that. It's being willing to not go first, not be the one who's always in charge, not be the one who's always telling the other person what to do or what you will play when.

It's giving other people a chance to have it their way instead of having it your way all the time. It's working together to solve a problem. When kids are flexible they tend to do better in social situations. It makes other people feel good and other kids want to be around a kid who is flexible.

However, you also want to make sure that your kid isn't being too flexible. They shouldn't always let somebody else have a turn first, always giving somebody else the first choice of what color they want to be when playing a game or always having somebody else go ahead of them. You've got to find a balance.

Sometimes a visual demonstration can help show what it means to be flexible. I decided to use three materials we always tend to have around in my house:

Sylvester and the Magic Pebble

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
William Steig was born in Brooklyn, New York, on November 14, 1907, and spent his childhood in the Bronx. Steig found an outlet for his talent by creating cartoons for the high school newspaper. After high school graduation, Steig spent two years at City College, three years at the National Academy, and five days at the Yale School of Fine Arts before dropping out. During his early days as a free-lance artist, he supplemented his income with work in advertising, although he intensely disliked it. He illustrated for the The New Yorker, beginning in 1930. During the 1940s, Steig's creativity found a more agreeable outlet when he began carving figurines in wood; his sculptures are on display as part of the collection in the historic home of Franklin D. Roosevelt in Hyde Park, New York, and in several museums in New England. In 1967, Bob Kraus, a fellow cartoonist at The New Yorker, was in the process of organizing Windmill Books, an imprint for Harper & Row. Kraus suggested that Steig try writing and illustrating a book for a young audience. The result was Steig's letter-puzzle book entitled C D B!, published in 1968. Roland the Minstrel Pig, was published the same year. With his very next title, Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, he won the Caldecott Medal. The Amazing Bone was also a Caldecott Honor Book.In 1972, Steig published his first children's novel, Dominic, which won the Christopher Award. Abel's Island followed and was a Newberry Honor Book. William Steig died in October 3, 2003 in Boston Massachusettes.

Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah's inspiring true story-which was turned into a film, Emmanuel's Gift, narrated by Oprah Winfrey-is nothing short of remarkable.

Born in Ghana, West Africa, with one deformed leg, he was dismissed by most people-but not by his mother, who taught him to reach for his dreams. As a boy, Emmanuel hopped to school more than two miles each way, learned to play soccer, left home at age thirteen to provide for his family, and, eventually, became a cyclist. He rode an astonishing four hundred miles across Ghana in 2001, spreading his powerful message: disability is not inability. Today, Emmanuel continues to work on behalf of the disabled.

Thompson's lyrical prose and Qualls's bold collage illustrations offer a powerful celebration of triumphing over adversity.

Includes an author's note with more information about Emmanuel's charity.

Growing a Growth Mindset: Unlocking Character Strengths through Children's Literature provides teachers with an innovative approach to teaching children the positive psychology constructs that underlie self-belief, goal motivation, and happiness. Through selected children's books, the book brings to life the latest research and strategies for developing growth mindset (attribution), hope, grit, character strengths, and happiness. Each of these positive psychology constructs is explored through a set of three picture book classics that makes the research understandable to even the youngest learner. The National Council for Social Studies inquiry approach drives each book-driven analysis of the selected stories. This inquiry-based approach is organized around a compelling question and provides a complete outline, including formative and summative questions and assessments, as well as extensions that share this vital learning with parents. Lessons in this book have been created by outstanding teachers and have been field tested in classrooms across the region with extraordinary results.

"The ideas set forth in this powerful book are critical if we are to free children
from the mistaken belief that failing is something to be feared.
Bravo to the authors for taking on this important issue." - Mark Pett, author/illustrator of The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes
​

"Educators will find this book a valuable resource in their efforts
to promote in students growth mindset, emotional resiliency, hope, and grit--
all of which play a crucial role in helping children cope, thrive, and succeed in school and beyond."
-Trudy Ludwig, children's advocate and bestselling author
"Thanks to "The field of social studies is primed for some new thinking. ll those who work with children seek inspiration and creativity from whatever source
​
Growing a Growth Mindset, I feel as though I've been given a real gift!
Growth mindsets is a particularly exciting way into this new thinking."

"With the increased focus on common core standards and standardized testing,
concepts embedded in positive psychology such as grit, character, and hope have too often
been ignored in discourse on education. Witnessing the price paid by students for this,
educators are increasingly coming to embrace these powerful factors in student learning.
This book fills a significant gap in the literature and offers concrete strategies
teachers and parents can take to "spread ripples of hope" in our schools and in our communities."

-Dr. Danielle Gately, Assistant to the Superintendent of Instruction in East Williston and EdCampLI Co-Founder
-Dr. Donald Gately, Jericho Middle School Principal and EdCampLI Co-Founder

"A

may be available. Kevin and Jessica's inspiring stories of grit, perseverance, and courage
​allow parents and teachers to convey a precious gift to the world's future leaders, the power of hope."
"The lessons on positive psychology impacted my child by letting her
take ownership of her feelings. She heard stories of hope and perseverance from others
that made her think and ask questions when she came home. She was able to internalize that
if she tried really hard and dedicated herself to something she wasn't good at,
she would eventually succeed. She knew that this success wasn't going to be instantaneous
and that it would be gradual, but when she saw the results of her hard work as a grade on a paper,
she was so proud of herself.

I really enjoyed the assignments that involved parental input. It allowed me
to share stories about my challenges and experiences that I wouldn't normally
have the opportunity to share with her. I think that doing assignments like these
brings a deeper closeness to the parent and child; it provides a better understanding of
where a parent is coming from when they give words of
encouragement or advice based on their past experiences."

-Lisa Hoffman, "Growing a Growth Mindset" classroom parent & Waverly Park PTA President

-John Lee, PhD, Interim Department Head and Professor,
I now have an exceptional resource to use for teaching social-emotional skills like
growth mindset, happiness, grit, and identifying natural talents.
The resources and activities that Sheehan and Ryan suggest
will make my students eagerly anticipate these lessons and beg for more!"

-Paul Solarz, 5th grade teacher and author of Learn Like a Pirate

​
"I feel privileged and honored that Sheehan and Ryan have chosen
to utilize the message of following your passions in life
despite what obstacles stand in your way within
Growing a Growth Mindset: Unlocking Character Strengths Through Children's Literature.
I am excited that this message has been incorporated into a curriculum
​that I feel could have a tremendous impact on educators, parents, and students."

-Justin Allen, professional basketball player and author of No You Can't, Yes I Can

Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah's inspiring true story-which was turned into a film, Emmanuel's Gift, narrated by Oprah Winfrey-is nothing short of remarkable.

Born in Ghana, West Africa, with one deformed leg, he was dismissed by most people-but not by his mother, who taught him to reach for his dreams. As a boy, Emmanuel hopped to school more than two miles each way, learned to play soccer, left home at age thirteen to provide for his family, and, eventually, became a cyclist. He rode an astonishing four hundred miles across Ghana in 2001, spreading his powerful message: disability is not inability. Today, Emmanuel continues to work on behalf of the disabled.

Thompson's lyrical prose and Qualls's bold collage illustrations offer a powerful celebration of triumphing over adversity.

Includes an author's note with more information about Emmanuel's charity.

The Greatest

The Greatest is all about perspective. Just when you think you are failing, when things seem to be going wrong a change of perspective shines a bright light of realization that you just might be succeeding in other ways.

It is a very simple concept but the key, of course was finding the right young actor to play the part. As you have seen, he is amazing. After countless takes throwing the ball up and missing—which is harder than you might think—he never lost his zeal. The last scene was as strong as the first. "Celebration" by Kool and The Gang fittingly takes us from despair at 'strike three" to euphoria and inspires us to embrace the value of Optimism as we face similar situations each day. After all, you might just be The Greatest.
VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
Boy: I'm the greatest hitter in the world!
Strike One.
I'm the greatest hitter in the world!

Hmmm.

Wow

I'm excited to participate in August 10 for 10 Picture Book Event! This my 5th year to participate. Check out the huge Our building principal chose Cathy Mere's and Mandy Robek's
Google + community!
Mindset: The New Psychology of Success for our staff book study this year, and I've really enjoyed the concepts author, Carol Dweck, Ph.D. teaches us. The major concepts about adapting and honing a growth mindset are: 1. We need to look at obstacles, challenges, and problems as opportunities to learn and grow.
2. Mistakes and failures are normal - what can we learn from them? How can they make us change and grow?
3. Hard work is more important than talent (as teachers we need to guard against praise for talent and give specific, not evaluative, feedback).
4. A fixed mindset can cause despair and/or superiority.
I am a gifted intervention specialist for 5th and 6th grade ELA. A good number of my 5th graders struggle when they first get to my class. I have students who cry or shut down when given difficult tasks or specific feedback for improvement. I think they're very used to high praise. Many of them are perfectionists and don't want to make any mistakes or be told they could grow to be better writers, readers, etc. They either think they're already "perfect" or they despair at not being smart enough to do the work I expect. I know they're not perfect AND I know they can work hard enough to achieve what I think they can. The growth mindset model is very important for gifted learners (and of course, every learner). They can make mistakes, continue to grow, and continue to be commended for hard work, not talent/intelligence alone. These books show how mistakes can be made into opportunities, hard work and persistence pay off, and circumstances and talent don't control destinies.

These picture books can promote and teach a growth mindset:

Lost. Found. by Marsha Diane Arnold, illustrated by Matthew Cordell

With Books and Bricks:How Booker T. Washington Built a School by Suzanne Buckingham Slade, illustrated by Nicole Tadgell
"Success is to be measured not so much by the position one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed." - Booker T. Washington

Ada's Violin: The Story of the Recycled Orchestra of Paraguay by Susan Hood, illustrated by Sally Wern Comport

Maybe Something Beautiful: How Art Transformed a Neighborhood by F. Isabel Campoy, illustrated by Rafael Lopez

Whoosh! Lonnie Johnson's Super-Soaking Stream of Inventions by Chris Barton, illustrated by Don Tate

The Fantastic Ferris Wheel: The Story of Inventor George Ferris by Betsy Harvey Kraft, illustrated by Steven Salerno

What Do You Do with an Idea? by Kobe Yamada, illustrated by Mae Besom

Rosie Revere, Engineer by Andrea Beaty, illustrated by David Roberts

The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires
Okay, one more that cannot be forgotten!

Beautiful Oops! by Barney Salzberg
BONUS (One that came out early July, but I haven't read yet, by the same author who wrote What Do You Do With An Idea?! - I know it has to be fabulous for growth mindset!)

What Do You Do With A Problem? Also (yes, it's always hard to stop at 10), it's important to adapt a growth mindset after grief/ loss or depression/anxiety so I think these picture books give us hope and resilience. Plus, I always have to have an excuse to put my all-time favorite picture book on a list like this - it's amazing how many categories it fits!

The Red Tree by Shaun Tan

Yes, this is my all-time favorite picture book. City Dog, Country Frog by Mo Willems, illustrated by Jon J. Muth
I'd love to hear any additional picture books you think would promote a growth mindset!

It's 10for10 Picture Book Day!
#pb10for10

10for10 Picture Book Day is one reason I look forward to August! Getting new picture book ideas is always fun, but my favorite part is seeing how people put picture book ideas together. I see ways to put picture books together that I never would have thought. So many wonderful ideas as we start our new school year.

I seem to go with a theme for this day, I guess my mind is always on the start of the school year at this time of year. Last year, my #pb10for10 post was about 10 books you could use for Quick Writes at the beginning of the year. See that post here. Sticking with the beginning of the year theme, here are 10 books that would be great to use at the beginning of the year. Whether it's to set the tone of your classroom community, give ideas on how to problem solve, or to put the new year in perspective, these books are sure to give you and your students a lot to talk about!

Use these books to help your students think with a new perspective,

think about things a little differently.

illustrated by Christian Robinson

When students get stuck, how do they go about solving their problem?

Sometimes you have to look at things in a new way.

We all have those days. But how you deal with them make a difference.

It's easy to get caught up in what is wrong. What is not right.

Use these books to encourage everyone to look for the best.

illustrated by Julia Sarcone-Roach

by Laurie Keller and Mo Willems

Round up your classroom community and think about

how you'll work together this year.

Here's to everyone having a great start of the school year!

A #1 New York Times Best Seller, What Do You Do With a Problem? is a story for anyone, at any age.
From the same author and illustrator as the #1 nationally best-selling What Do You Do With an Idea? comes a new book to encourage you to look closely at problems and discover the possibilities they can hold.
Praise for What Do You Do With a Problem?
This is the story of a persistent problem and the child who isn't so sure what to make of it. The longer the problem is avoided, the bigger it seems to get. But when the child finally musters up the courage to face it, the problem turns out to be something quite different than it appeared.

What Do You Do With a Problem? is a story for anyone, at any age, who has ever had a problem that they wished would go away. It's a story to inspire you to look closely at that problem and to find out why it's here. Because you might discover something amazing about your problem... and yourself.

"...Yamada's inspirational prose and the romance of Besom's spreads make an impact."-Publishers Weekly

"In a wonderful balance of text and pictures, the team responsible for What Do You Do With an Idea (2014) returns with another book inspiring children to feel good about themselves" -Kirkus Reviews

"While not every problem can be so easily dismantled, this is a beautifully illustrated reminder of possibility." -Booklist

"This relatable story will resonate with children who become frustrated or daunted when facing a problem, encouraging them to step back and view it with a new perspective." ---The Horn Book
