One thing that intrigues me is evaluating the features of a growth mindset classroom and adjust our practice.]]> 2017-09-07 15:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/185548879 https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/186925417 2017-09-12 18:33:42 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/186925417 https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/186957662 Jill: has copies of books ish, The Dot, and Your Fantastic Elastic Brain by JoAnn Deak that we can share

It makes sense that they must be able to understand the difference in order to make the shift. ]]> 2017-09-12 22:51:24 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/186990953 https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/187269154 If you use the class dojo, or have an account, or even want to sign up for an account just to access the great videos,  they have a video series (5 videos about 5 minutes long each) on the growth mindset. We plan to have the kids watch the "mini series" during snack within the next couple of weeks to learn about how the mind can grow :)

If you use push pins, students can edit and revise as they grow. ]]> 2017-09-16 10:10:31 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/188137077 https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/188284622 We started with the T chart with the kids (from the book) and they really enjoyed coming up with things that they had to learn before they could learn something else. We then discussed the definitions of growth and fixed mindsets, and continue to review the terms as situations come up. We had the students take the survey and scored each student based on the scale in the book. We made a line plot with the data and posted it so we can hopefully show a shift in some mind sets by the end of the year. We also had the kids work in pairs to do the sort in the book, which led to some good conversation.]]> 2017-09-17 23:53:52 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/188284622 https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/191073787 Using GROWTH MINDSET music can be a fantastic source of motivation for students, help elicit positive emotions, stir a spirit of optimism, & energize children into that "I can do anything” mindset! :)]]> 2017-09-26 01:49:44 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/191073787 https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/192836231 At the completion of our Unit 1 test in Math, we showed the students the percent of our class who improved from the pre-test to the post test. We discussed how we are not looking at how many students got an "A", but how many students simply made an improvement. Our class has set a goal for this Unit to have 100% student make growth from the pre-test to the post-test.]]> 2017-10-02 02:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/bmaurao/ig91q6g9uhkp/wish/192836231
