Suicide is a serious public health problem that takes an enormous toll on families, students, employees and communities. Suicide prevention involves the collective efforts of families/caregivers, the school community, mental health practitioners, local community organizations, and related professionals to reduce the incidence of suicide through education, awareness, and services.

Growth and fixed mindset

Currently, most topics in the Mindset Kit are built for teaching and understanding a growth mindset (and its counterpart - a fixed mindset). We have several videos to help you learn more about these mindsets and example practices that can help you get started.

You can select a topic from our home page that best fits your interests. Or, if you are interested in researching the science behind some of the other learning mindsets, we suggest reading more on the Mindset Scholars Network website.

Open collaboration

The Mindset Kit is a place to find all the best resources and practices related to learning mindsets. PERTS creates much of its own content, but we also partner with individuals and organizations to make our content better. Some of our most popular resources are the growth mindset lesson plan we made in collaboration with Khan Academy and the practice videos we made with the Teaching Channel. We are hard at work improving all our materials and building new topics to explain other learning mindsets and to reach a wider audience. We encourage potential partners to reach out to us.

In addition, the Mindset Kit has a resource library where we encourage our visitors to post their own materials. PERTS strongly values a growth mindset and we understand that we can learn even more by working with specialists and practitioners-from school principals to enthusiastic parents.

What have we learned so far?

We care deeply about our collaborations with teachers and with school districts so that we can learn what is working, what is challenging, and what resources or knowledge are missing.

In February 2016, we released a report titled, Promoting Learning Mindsets in Schools: Lessons from Educators' Engagement with the PERTS Mindset Kit. This report highlights what we have learned about how educators are using the Mindset Kit resources, what challenges they encounter, and what areas for future development have emerged. These findings may be of value to educators, policymakers, and foundations interested in supporting broad adoption of mindset supporting practices and policies.

Setting the Stage

Introduce the film by telling students they will be watching a film about a 14-year-old boy, Amar, who lives in a major city of Eastern India. Show students Jamshedpur, a city in the state of Jharkhand, on a world map. Tell students that Jharkhand is one of the poorest states in India.

Explain to students that the film follows Amar through his daily routines and activities. Ask students to consider the routines of their own day. What keeps students focused on their daily tasks? Is it a commitment to personal success, to family or friends, or to a goal of learning new skills?

Ask students to write a timeline of the main activities of their day, noting the time, place, and people with whom they share these activities. What are the motivations behind these activities?

Engaging with the Story

While students watch the film, ask them to jot down the main activities of Amar's day. Who are the people involved with each activity?

Ask students to note the duration of each of the activities by observing the time-stamps included by the filmmaker. Which of Amar's activities take the most time? How much of his daily routine involves rest or play? How much time is spent with family, schoolwork, and employment?

Delving Deeper

After viewing the film, lead a discussion with such questions as:

Make a list of Amar's main activities evident in the film, noting where these activities take place and the time of day.

Filmmaker Andrew Hinton uses timestamps, stating the hour and minutes, throughout the film. What do you think he is saying about Amar's life by using this technique?

Make a list of your first impressions of Jamshedpur, the city where Amar and his family lives. What are some characteristics of Jamshedpur?

Which of Amar's qualities and attitudes are most evident in this film? How do these qualities or attitudes support or motivate Amar during his daily routine?

This film contains ambient sound without music or dialogue. Filmmaker Andrew Hinton explained, "I like the simplicity of the natural sounds." Why do you think he made the choice to use only natural sounds in this film? What impact does this technique have on the viewer? If the film included dialogue, how might this change the viewer's experience?

In an interview, Hinton explained that Amar "really made me stop and think about how I use the time in my own life." If you were to observe your life and your use of time, would you change anything? Would you use your time differently? If so, in what ways?

Reflecting and Projecting

Give students one of the following reflective writing prompts to demonstrate their understanding of the story. (Note for teachers: Just as quotes from a book or text are used to prove an analytical thought, students use the film to justify their reasoning.)

1. The subtitle of this film, "All great achievements require time," is a slogan on a poster in Amar's house. This quote was written by Maya Angelou, a well-known African American poet and novelist born into poverty in the south. Write a paragraph about this quote and address the following questions using examples from the film to support your point of view: How might you state or interpret this quote in your own words? How does Amar's life reflect the meaning of this quote? What do you think are some characteristics, or personality traits, a person can develop to live by this statement? (C3.D2.Geo.4.9-12)

2. The film includes many scenes of daily life in Jamshedpur. Select one scene from the film and write a paragraph describing the scene in detail. For example, the scene you select could be Amar at home getting ready for school or riding his bike down the street. How does this scene depict life in Jamshedpur? In what ways does this scene compare to a similar scene (for example, your home, work or school) in your life? Describe the similarities and differences between the scenes. (CCSS.ELA.SL.11-12.1.c)

3. Time Magazine for Kids, in their "Around the World" series, features children's lives from a variety of countries, including Japan, Kenya, Greece, Israel, and others. Pick one of the following three examples from this "A Day in the Life" series. (Note to teachers: other countries are available.)
Compare and contrast the day of the child that you selected to the daily life of Amar. What are some similarities and differences? What do you think makes Amar and the child you selected unique as individuals? Do you think there is value in observing how people live around the world? Why or why not? (C3.D2.Geo.2.9-12)

The Offering documents a pre-celebration ritual associated with Peru's unique Quechua Danza de Tijeras, or "Scissor Dance." The traditional Quechua dance, some believe, was created as an Indigenous form of protest against Spanish imperialism.

The Andean dance was practiced by Indigenous healers and fortune-tellers as a means of communication with pre-Christian divinities. The dancers today wear colorful clothing ornamented with fringe and sequins and wield iron rods that resemble scissors which they clang rhythmically alongside the fiddle and harp. This acrobatic performance, reminiscent of modern break-dancing, is challenging, as the dancer completes it on one foot. The ceremonial invocation that precedes the dance honors Incan deities, including the earth mother Pachamama.

European settlers viewed the trance-like performance as an act of devil worship. Eventually, colonizers managed to incorporate the scissor dance into Christian rituals. The dance is a staple of Quechuan Catholic festivities and villages turn out to cheer on the cuadrillas (teams) in marathon competitions. To this day, the dancers are forbidden to enter a church while in traditional dress.

It's been shown that if you write down three good things that happen to you everyday, your happiness and positivity increase. Three Good Things, a happiness journal, enables you to do exactly that with a simple user-interface and gamification to encourage engagement.

In the world today, society tends to focus on the negative. Rather than remembering all of the good things in their lives, people often focus on the things which they don't like. With Three Good Things, you can rewire your brain to focus on the positive by writing down good things that happen to you everyday. By finding positive things that happen in your daily life, you train your mind to notice the good things in life instead of allowing it to focus on the negative.

As Harvard Professor Shawn Achor explains in his book The Happiness Advantage, "this exercise has staying power.... the items you write down each day don't need to be profound or complicated, only specific. You can mention the delicious take-out Thai food you had for dinner, your child's bear hug at the end of a long day, or the well-deserved acknowledgement from your boss at work."

Depression symptoms eased

This app is an amazing way to end the day. I am diagnosed with major depressive disorder, anxiety, and ADD, so it's very difficult for me to stay positive and focused. I've been told on more than one occasion that I am a very pessimistic person and this app gives me some positivity at the end of the day. Knowing and remembering that positive things even if very small do happen allows me to get a better nights sleep and I wake up more ready to face the day. It's also simple enough to keep my attention for just the right amount of time so that I don't lose focus.
Although others don't see the difference yet (it's only been a week since starting the app) I feel the difference. I am more aware of the good things that do happen. I can actually get out of bed when I wake up rather that laying in bed for 15 minutes trying to force myself to get out of bed, because I look forward to having "good things" happen.
Thank you so much for this app. It has helped me in an amazing way, I can't believe the difference I feel, and all from your app.
You guys are amazing!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Best of luck in all your endeavors. I also use your journaling and notebook apps so I know anything you do will be great and appreciated. I'm sure you're helping more people than you know, keep up your awesome work and know all you do is really helping people.
THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!!!!!

Perfect for my nighttime routine

Quick and low-key, familiar feeling as posting a quick tweet. Low stimulation makes it perfect for my night time routine, and it kind of puts the whole day into perspective in a positive way. There's only like 100 characters allowed per "good thing" you wrote, so I like that it can't become a journaling experience I get overly sucked into because that's sully what makes me want to skip journaling at the end of a long day to begin with. Easy to use, easy to stick with, easy to love. Sometimes simple really is better,

An Amazing APP! Love it!

Use it as my daily gratitude journal. It captures positive thoughts in a quick and concise manner. I've always been challenged to be consistent in my daily recording. This forces me to be specific and succinct about what went well and what I'm grateful for daily. The daily reminder is a great feature. Set at 9pm to ensure the day doesn't end without slowing down and being fully present to reflect on what went well. I refer this app to friends, family and colleagues all the time! Today I'm grateful for "3 Good Things!"

Camp for Grieving Kids

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Dear Comfort Zone Camp Community,

I am so pleased to share that we are holding in-person camps! In fact, we've safely held seven so far this year! So what's next? We anticipate holding in-person camps with 1:1 matching of kids to adults for the remainder of the year. We also will continue to have the programs we launched during COVID--our virtual and in-person family camps. Both were very successful and will be incorporated into our menu of camp opportunities as we look forward to 2022.

Other Camp News: We have our first ever camp in West Virginia, October 22-24, 2021! Please help up spread the word! We also just held our first camp in Nevada and will be back in Utah this August.

This year, we have a camp in Virginia over the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy. We are working on a special way to honor the impacted families who became so close to us. Comfort Zone was one of the first programs to mobilize and help grieving families after the September 11th attacks. When that tragic event happened to our country, CZC was three years old and based only in Virginia; we knew at that moment that we needed to respond and expand our program to families up north.

Our events are also in full swing. Thanks to all those who participated in our Grief Relief National 5K and took the time to run, walk, and remember their loved ones! We have galas, golf tournaments, and more coming this fall. Make sure to check out our events calendar.

We are so grateful to everyone who has supported us for the past 22 years, especially through the pandemic. Grieving children and their families is our priority, and we remain committed to serving that community and making sure they always have a voice and a place.

Very Simple way of tracking daily gratitude

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Hi there, I am Pritesh - maker of the Gratitude app, a great tool to bring more gratitude into your lives.

The Gratitude app was born out of a personal need and I had initially built the app for myself. In June 2017, my family and I were struggling with many problems. We were in a constant state of negativity, frustration, and anxiety. My dad was a victim of politics at his job, my mother was not keeping well, my sister and I were struggling at our jobs and figuring out what to do. It felt as if we were constantly attracting negativity and things felt like they were becoming even worse.

We consulted spiritual healers and therapists. I attended mind power workshops, read a lot of self-help books, and even asked for help from friends and family. I won't deny that reading the book 'The Secret' by Rhonda Byrne had a huge positive impact on me.
While doing all these, I actively started to focus more on the positives, to count my blessings. I understood and absorbed the fact that if I keep complaining about the things that I lack, no matter what I achieve, I'll continue to be anxious or worrying about things that I lack(at that time). More importantly, I realized that the most important reason for staying unhappy was when we spent all the time thinking about "I" or "me" or "myself" - being self-centered.

I started writing and expressing thanks for the little things that happened to me. It wasn't easy. It was difficult at the start. In fact, at the beginning things seem to feel even worse. Because, I was expecting things to change sooner and when that didn't happen early on, I started questioning the whole concept of Gratitude. But I wondered, what is the harm in doing it anyway? There's nothing to lose.
Right now, I'm not exaggerating when I say that I feel magical after expressing, writing, and harboring Grateful thoughts. I eventually succeeded in convincing my family too to try and focus on the positive, and now after quite a hard time, all of us are doing great. Over time, I think we realized that we shouldn't be chasing the wrong things and attach our happiness to them. I built this app because I wanted a private place to write my grateful thoughts, to remind me to focus on the positive, and to give it colors. The app has been my happy place.

Journaling:
The app is a great tool to reminds us about the little things that we can take for granted. You can set multiple reminders for making you consistent at feeling grateful and finding gratitude for new things every day. On difficult days, you can look back and read up your old journal entries. They are great for uplifting your mood. If you are stuck or find it boring, the app gives you ideas on what you could be grateful for. Lots of our users love adding images to their journals. These become cherishable memories for a lifetime. The app also allows you to write a letter of thank you to someone that brought value to you.

Self Affirmations:
Lots of our users asked us for also including affirmations. This is the second tab in the app. These self-affirmations are great for improving your self-talk and self-image. You can customize your affirmations with background images, adding your voice, and background music. You can also discover new affirmations from our handpicked ones.

Daily Zen:
Every day, the app brings to you inspiring quotes, affirmations, and gratitude stories from other users.

Vision Board:
There's a place in the app that you can use to visualize your goals every day. You can add several photos related to your dreams and play these every day with background music.

If you have any questions about the app or getting start with your Gratitude Journaling Journey, please don't hesitate to write to me at priteshsankhe@gratefulness.me

Greatness starts by being grateful

I am so thankful for this app. I'm also very grateful to the team who developed it and who constantly updates it to a positive direction. This app's free feature is great in which I started with. But I decided to purchase the membership because I enjoy uploading photos and keeping traceable record of my journey of gratitude.
I started this app when I started reading the book, "The gift," by Rhonda Byrnes.
I recommend this app to go alongside that book because it easily allows you to record your day to day grateful practices. The book had 28 days to practice gratefulness. And both the book and this app has allowed me to transform my life to the better. 2020 has not been a kind year to many , but to practice being grateful even for the small things go a long way. I still practice writing down my daily blessings in this app despite finishing the book weeks ago. I also love the fact that they offer reminders, quotes and challenges to keep you engaged to being grateful. So thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU!!

Hey Nina! Thank you so much for your wonderful and inspiring review 😍 I am glad to see that you have been working on empowering yourself on your life journey. Gratitude app was built out of a personal need. And, with constant practice, gratitude brings happiness around. Thank you for liking the features like reminders, quotes and taking the challenge. I wish you a wonderful journey ahead. Lots of love and be safe ❤️

A diamond in the rough

I was looking for a simple way to be more mindful and grateful when I stumbled upon this app. It's awesome. The free version may be perfect for you to add a bit a positivity. If so, use it, in these troubling times it's hard to remember all the good things in your life. I got the subscription as I love the fact that is synced across devices and you can add more pics. I was just looking for a easy way to journal my thoughts but this little gem has so much more: from reminders, gratitude prompts, daily inspirational quotes, and even ways to make your own affirmations to help you focus on the the positive and your resiliency. Even if you only use the free version, please use it. The positivity and kindness that come from mindfulness, no matter how small, will create a tiny ripple in the sea of chaos. And who knows, maybe that one ripple will be the only thing that another person has in their life. We never truly know just how we affect people. Let's try and make sure it's kindness, empathy and compassion we spread.

Hey, this is so lovely 😍 Thank you so much for your wonderful review 🙏 I shared your review with my friends to inspire them. I am so glad to see you found my app meaningful. This app was built out of a personal need. You are right about the free version of the app. They are perfect to build a habit of practising gratitude. I am glad that you found the features inside the app helpful. I really liked what you have said in the last lines of your review 🙌 I wish you a wonderful journey ahead. Lots of love and be safe ❤️

The App that "fits"

I've tried a number of journaling and gratitude apps and most of them try to be too many things. This app is beautiful in so many ways: it's focused - you will definitely increase your level of gratitude with it because that's what the app is about; it's intuitive - born out of the developer's own needs, the app is beautiful in UI - simple, effective, and the app does not get in your way at all; and it's uplifting - between the Zen Affirmations that are included and my ability to add my own In-CAN-rations (yes, Tony Robbins fan), this app hits the mark. Finally, I really like the widgets for the new iOS 14 home screens - this is the gem of it all. Now I can get these tidbits played back to me without opening the app. I'm grateful that life happened FOR Pratish (the developer) and this app arose from his personal struggles. Without those struggles, we would have never been able to enjoy this app and all it can do to help YOU.

Hey! Thank you so much for your lovely review 😍 I am glad to see that you found our app meaningful and liked the story behind the app. Thank you giving our app a chance and for liking the widgets that we have provided with the iOS 14. These widgets provides you an easy access to positivity. I wish you lots of love and happiness in life. Be safe ❤️
