My Mindshift SMART Goal by Jessica Williams https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3 Please utilize the columns to create an attainable goal for yourself to change your language to reflect a more growth mindset. en-us 2020-04-25 17:41:35 UTC 2020-08-23 18:11:23 UTC hello@padlet.com Self-talk tbauer20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657516232 Honestly, I would like to have more of positive self talk--instantly. Sometimes I can put myself on a negative pathway before my brain has even processed the situation. I would like to train my brain to not complain to myself about things.

]]> 2020-07-18 19:18:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657516232 Important self talk tbauer20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657516968 This is important because I won't be half "beaten" before I even get started. It will keep me in a much better mindset and thus achieve the task with a better attitude.

Optimism--I will try to look at the situations with an optimistic attitude so not to weigh down the situation. Trust--I will try to make sure I trust the process and realize things happen for a reason.]]> 2020-07-18 19:22:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657517426 Lifetime???? tbauer20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657518446 HAHAHA! Yes, in honesty, I do believe this will be a lifetime shift of purposeful positive self talk. Seriously, my closest timeline will probably be the first couple months of school. As we look at how we will be returning to school in the fall, I am going to really have to be doing some major positive self talk as certainly it will be filled with change! I will also have to trust this process and try to stay as optimistic as possible.

Too often we let ourselves get weighted down by everyday struggles. It's important to have self-compassion to not allow ourselves to be stuck, instead learn from the struggle, allow ourselves to identify our feelings, come up with a plan and move onward. ]]> 2020-07-19 22:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657896193 Jackie Demarais https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657898253 I'm going to create a vision board to help me stay focused and not let myself feel stuck. It'll have all the great learned lessons, what I want my school year to look like, what's important to me, quotes to remind me of pivotal points from the book, etc. I'll keep it in my classroom but also take a picture of it to have as my screen saver for my phone. This way I'll always be able to remind myself when I need it most. ]]> 2020-07-19 22:20:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/657898253 Take Care of Myself jdwalt04 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/660284089 Knowing I am teaching in a classroom that I have been away from for the last four years while implementing hybrid/distance learning, school work will consume my life.

Challenges- when these occur take time to take a deep breath, take a break (look outside), gratitude (think what I am grateful for) or movement (stand, walk).Self talk- I am enough. I do enough.

As a teacher there is always one more thing to do or another way to make things better.

I would then like to implement activities that are meant to teach students how to work through productive struggle. Lastly, I would like to incorporate challenging curriculum during the school year that pushes the students to work through productive struggle.]]> 2020-07-27 17:18:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/663458923 Empathy tbauer20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/664419915 I would like to practice more empathy in the world around me.

I think using the word incubation in relationship to the learning process accurately portrays the growth mindset concept that all students can learn, but that the may achieve that learning at vastly different paces. And that doing challenging learning/work will take some time to reach our final learning goal.]]> 2020-08-01 20:44:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667193148 Incubation/Metamorphosis (Kahla Jourdan) kjourdan2 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667193854 I think that using the word incubation for growing our minds and learning really conveys the idea that learning is not an immediate, "I got it!" but a process that takes time. There are a lot of biological process terms that I think could also tie into this, such as metamorphosis. I will use this with my students, but also with myself as we go through what looks to be an especially challenging school year.]]> 2020-08-01 20:47:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667193854 Mantra (Kahla Jourdan) kjourdan2 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667194302 I think that implementing the mantra "Give It Time" is one strategy to work toward this new habit. I would also like to try and incorporate mindfulness activities to help with the idea of building patience and space for reflection.]]> 2020-08-01 20:49:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667194302 Begin immediately, and through this school year (Kahla Jourdan) kjourdan2 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667195901 There are ideas and plans floating around so quickly right now that I would like to try and implement mental incubation for myself as soon as possible. I am not sure what my role/grade level may be this year, but I hope that we can work on giving ourselves time to incubate and learn.]]> 2020-08-01 20:57:13 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/667195901 Gratitude - Marceia Andreasen mmandr19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672344459 I am interested in using the mindfulness practice of gratitude to retrain my brain to look at the positive things first and assume positive intent. I found it interesting that the brain has a default to look at negative stimuli first. I catch myself doing this and now that I am aware I can shift to look at things differntly!]]> 2020-08-07 12:30:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672344459 Importance - Marceia Andreasen mmandr19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672347321 Practicing gratitude is important because it rewires our brain to look for the positive and assume positive intent which supports a growth mindset. If we practice this, we will approach things with curiosity which can help engage us in a process of moving forward and learning instead of being stuck, hesitant or fearful.]]> 2020-08-07 12:35:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672347321 The Practice of Gratitude - Marceia Andreasen mmandr19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672349683 One strategy I will use is to practice gratitude daily in spending a few minutes to identifying things I am grateful for. I will focus on and notice reasons to be grateful in the world as I move through my day with intention. I will let others know when I am grateful for them or something they have done. I will spend a few minutes each day journaling about my gratitude focus. Once you begin to look for reasons to be grateful you start to see more and more reasons to feel this way!]]> 2020-08-07 12:39:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672349683 Timeline - Marceia Andreasen mmandr19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672353542 My timeline would be daily and I plan to begin today! Through journaling each day I hope to continue this practice and use my journal as my accountability to keep me on track and practicing gratitude. My hope that through this, looking for the positive will become me default and help support my growth mindset.]]> 2020-08-07 12:44:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/672353542 Failing-Joey Andreasen jjandr19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/673735551 I am going to tell myself that it's okay to fail.

“It looks like that was too easy for you. Let’s find you something challenging so your brain can grow.”

“You’ve worked hard to become a good writer. You should challenge yourself with an advanced class, and learn something you don’t know how to do yet.”

Throughout the coming school year I want to focus on the language I use in the classroom to promote a growth mindset. I especially want to build students’ understanding of the impact of effort on their brain with hopes that when they leave my classroom at the end of the year, they take that understanding with them.

Instead of seeing my areas of growth as flaws or negatives, I want to begin to see them as just that, areas of growth. I want to increase my ability to speak kindly to myself even when no one else can hear me.

I want to be able to build a stronger skin that allows me to be able to accept feedback as feedback instead of feeling personally attacked by it. I also think that it is so important to walk the walk and talk the talk.

I have made it a part of my nightly routine to write down three things
that I am grateful for, three things I am proud of, and three things I am working to improve. It has taken the space of my nightly scroll through the news app on my phone. I would also like to work to reframe the way I ask for feedback from others, I don't want to ask for it just to seek reassurance from others that I am doing okay. I want to ask for it to look for ways to continue to grow and develop. The other strategy is to work on wholeheartedly listening in a conversation instead of developing my defense or response. This is allowing me to be more present in the moment and allow for others to provide positive and negative feedback to me as they see fit. It isn't easy but anything worth doing isn't right?]]> 2020-08-12 02:18:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/676596386 This will be a never end process for me kbtech20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/676601019 I don't have an exact time line for this process because I feel like that is part of the concept of a growth mindset. If we feel as if we are done growing then we are falling back into the trap of a fixed mindset because we feel as if we are done growing and stuck where we are at.

I need to have more of a growth mindset towards myself. As the course as progressed, I have noticed how I tend to believe in other people more than I do in myself. I have been focusing on progress instead of product. For example, I have been focusing on my health and eating healthier. I now recognize the progress I have made and not the mindset of "I am not at my goal yet.

I need to remind myself that this is important for my confidence as well. Continually building myself up and praising the hard work. ]]> 2020-08-12 19:13:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677694336 Alyssa Lia aklia20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677696931 I will use the strategy of daily affirmations. I used to do them once in awhile, but I will physically write them down on a post-in and place it on my mirror in the morning.

There will not be an end. ]]> 2020-08-12 19:18:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677700261 Alexa Blair axblai20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677819683 I want to shift my language by using positive words of affirmation toward myself.

These are great ways to de-stress and remind myself that I am doing my job even if I make a mistake. It is also important to set that example for anyone who looks up to me. If they see that I have self-love and self-appreciation it will maybe make them want to as well. ]]> 2020-08-12 20:53:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677823646 Alexa Blair axblai20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677826763 When I breathe with my apple watch during the day, I will also take a moment to appreciate the things I am doing in that moment, whether it be writing a lesson plan, doing paperwork, making copies, etc. I will also start a new habit of writing down three things I am proud that I accomplished at the end of each day. This will help me reflect on those positive, instead of focusing on any negatives. ]]> 2020-08-12 20:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677826763 Alexa Blair axblai20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/677831181 I would love to tell you that I will have it mastered by the end of the week or even the end of the year, but that isn't realistic. I think positive self-talk and self-appreciation is something I am ALWAYS going to be working on. I am sure there will be some days where I forget to write in my journal or don't have anything positive to say about myself. It will definitely be a work in progress as I don't have much self-appreciation or talk to myself positively very often.

For example, I've wanted to start reading more or exercising more in my daily life. I usually only make it a few days before these positive changes cease because they are too hard. I need to understand that it won't all come at once, but even baby steps (a few pages a day, run a half mile today) is a great start. ]]> 2020-08-14 15:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/680480612 Now - Taylor Johnson taylorjohnson8 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/680487355 I'd like to start this during this school year, but it might be better to start before the year begins while I have a bit more free time. I plan on trying to embrace new challenges starting next week. I think I'll start with one, and gradually build from there. ]]> 2020-08-14 15:48:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/680487355 Gratitude awolso18 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681827398 Avalon Olson
Recognizing the good around me, state my gratitude clearly and recognize the process that the individual had to go through to get to the end result. I can be a bit of an introvert. This makes it difficult for me to initiate conversation with people not in my “circle”. This does not mean that I don’t recognize, or have a sense of gratitude, I just get nervous or let too much time pass before I vocalize it. I am making it a goal to state my gratitude right when I see it. ]]> 2020-08-16 15:12:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681827398 Avalon Olson awolso18 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681828896 This goal will help in developing a growth mindset in many ways. Personal growth by working on my weakness of speaking out right away and expressing gratitude will also bring me joy. Recognizing jobs well, gratitude and the process, maybe even the struggle, someone went through to complete a task. ]]> 2020-08-16 15:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681828896 Avalon Olson awolso18 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681830588 I recognize that this goal may not be attainable right off the bat. It will take baby steps to get there. I will first start with a gratitude journal, listing things from throughout the day that brought me joy and that I am thankful for. I will then move on to personalized notes. Because speaking out to people that are not in my immediate friend group is a bit intimidating to me, I feel like stating with notes is a great next step. I can state my gratitude, affirmation or that kind gesture I witnessed and simply put it in their mailbox. When this is more comfortable I can move on to voicing what I witness right when it happens. ]]> 2020-08-16 15:22:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681830588 Avalon Olson awolso18 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681831960 Being that I am focusing on gratitude, Thanksgiving would be a great time to start moving onto my second step. I will spend the first couple months of school writing and tracking in my journal. By Thanksgiving I will begin making personalized notes of gratitude to people. By the end of the year, vocalizing my gratitude and what I witness as soon as it happens should be second nature. ]]> 2020-08-16 15:27:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681831960 Derek Long dxlong19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/681930080 Focusing on positive dialogue when stressed or having a difficult time with a task.

S: specific -- My goal is specific; it states that I am looking forward to writing about my gratitude each day.

M: measurable -- My goal is measurable; I will list three things that I am thankful for every day.

A: attainable -- My goal is attainable; I can integrate my gratitude journal into my nightly routine.

Practicing gratitude allows me to be thankful for every single day of my life; something no one should ever take for granted.]]> 2020-08-17 12:32:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682563868 Strategies ~Courtney Krefting cpkref20 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682565037 The strategies that I will use to create my new habit of practicing gratitude include:

Telling my goal to my significant other.
Keeping a pen and my gratitude journal in my nightstand.
Writing the date each day in my journal.
Sticking to a routine/schedule of reflecting on my day each night.

Words like , "Wow, you're a natural at this, you're so smart" foster the growth mindset. Whereas words like, "Wow, I can see you worked hard at this , and you didn't give up" foster the growth mindset. My goal for this upcoming year is to be aware and make a conscious effort of communicating to my students in ways that foster a growth mindset.]]> 2020-08-17 14:52:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682860622 Joshua Berge jxberg14 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682871837 This is important because Dweck's research has discovered that when you talk to students in a fixed mindset language, they are fearful to take on new challenges because they are fearful of looking unintelligent. But if you talk to students in growth mindset language, students are much more likely to embrace challenges and work hard. This benefits them in every area of life.]]> 2020-08-17 14:56:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682871837 Joshua Berge jxberg14 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682878942 The strategies that I will use are much like the ones we researched in this class. My biggest strategy will be in the way I communicate with students. But other strategies are using growth mindset language in giving written feedback, letting parents know of growth mindset language, and continuing to research best practices when it comes to fostering a growth mindset in the minds of students.]]> 2020-08-17 14:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682878942 Joshua Berge jxberg14 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682889466 My timeline is this school year. I will re-evaluate myself 3 times throughout the year (One at the end of each trimester). Hopefully by the end of the year, it will be a habit for me and I will naturally speak words of growth mindset for the rest of my career.]]> 2020-08-17 15:04:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/682889466 Feedback - Adam Fleischacker afleischacker https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683536507 I would like to shift the language I use when giving feedback to my students. I do use growth mindset statements such as, "I want you to give your best effort, I don't care if you get an answer wrong as long as you do your best." but I have also used the phrases "You're so smart!" "You're so good at this." and other statements that focuse on intellegence over effort.]]> 2020-08-17 18:53:03 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683536507 Adam Fleischacker afleischacker https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683540991 This is important because it will consistently remind students that growing is due to the effort and practice you put in and not due to natural ability.

I think if we can all support each other in this focus of feedback that encourages effort, we can begin implementing it right away to start this school year. Obviously we will have to keep each other in check and support each other as we work through some feedback habits that we have held for some time.]]> 2020-08-17 18:58:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683547829 Rebecca Johnson rljohn19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683629375 I would like to use my words to acknowledge that yes this is hard, but if you keep at it, you will succeed. I want students to understand that yes I am giving you something today that is new and different and so it is challenging. However I have faith in you and I will encourage you to keep working because I know you can achieve it.

]]> 2020-08-17 19:35:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683629375 Rebecca Johnson rljohn19 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/683630712 The ability to persevere in the face of challenges is exactly what a growth mindset is all about. It is also something that I do not see in many students today. So many things are done for young people or are simply easier because of technology. When they arrive at something that is truly hard they often give up before they even start. I want my words to always tell students that yes it is hard, but you are capable of doing this.

Then I can have these at the back of my mind to use with students and post in my classroom. I need to develop or find visuals that illustrate that the steps of a journey are not always straight up. There may be twists, turns and roadblocks and setbacks. Lastly, I need to remind myself, in all that I do, that the same ideas apply to me. I will not always get it the first try. It may be harder than I think when I start but I am capable of finishing what I started.

I need to work on continuing my self improvement journey, especially as I finish up my work on my masters program over the coming 10 months. As I work to integrate these ideas further into my own life, I can let that spill over into my teaching and working with students. This is something I will need to keep checking myself on and reevaluating my efforts. I need to set aside time next summer to reflect back on this work and see how I can move forward even more.

It allows people to see that they still have the ability to accomplish the goal instead of feeling stupid or frustrated with their current results. This small word change will allow me to not get frustrated with myself if a project isn’t looking the exact way I imagined. It will also help my students and their families to view their learning as a process, and that we need to celebrate their hard work. This word change will help everyone keep a growth mindset.]]> 2020-08-18 04:28:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/684247453 Yet- Sarah Garrigan segarr18 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/684251831 I will create this new habit by using the concept daily for a while until it becomes a habit. I will keep a sticky note on my computer that says “yet” as a reminder to use this word when talking about progress and results. The more I intentionally use this phrase, the more it will become second nature and help me maintain my growth mindset. I will also teach it to my students this fall, so they can start using it in class. Hearing them talk about “not yet” will be a reminder to me about the power of this word as well. ]]> 2020-08-18 04:34:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/684251831 Yet-Sarah Garrigan segarr18 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/684255626 My timeline is to start now and continue with it for the rest of my life. This is a powerful phrase that will help me, and others, maintain a growth mindset. This phrase will help me with my positive self-talk, and it will help me calm some concerns parents have. I always try and focus on growth when showing parents test scores or grades, and the word yet is the perfect word to add to when talking about the big picture. Using the word yet will help parents see learning as a process, and that their student doesn’t need to master these skills until the end of kindergarten. ]]> 2020-08-18 04:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/684255626 Mind Your Language - Mike Rogers mrogers https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/684779676 I would like to be more intentional about the language I use with my students.

I would like to eliminate any sort of praise that conveys a fixed mindset, and move towards more consistently praising effort and perseverance. ]]> 2020-08-19 19:13:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688052198 Sara Scott sara_scott https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688060812 When we praise someone, we are basically telling them what we value. If I continue to praise intelligence and correct answers, I'm showing my students that is what I care about. When I shift my focus to effort, attitude and behaviors, I am steering them towards a growth mindset. ]]> 2020-08-19 19:16:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688060812 Sara Scott sara_scott https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688064920 I think that starting with a written or typed list of positive ways to praise would be a good start. I'd imagine that after a while, it will come more naturally. It might also be beneficial to make a goal to praise effort a certain number of times per class period and hold myself accountable with a checklist or something. ]]> 2020-08-19 19:18:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688064920 Sara Scott sara_scott https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688071047 This is something I can start doing as soon as school starts and that I can continue throughout my teaching career. My thoughts are that I would need to be very intentional about it right off the bat, but with practice it would just become part of who I am as a teacher. ]]> 2020-08-19 19:21:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688071047 Michael Peterson michaelpeterson1 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688489654 I would like to make a shift when it comes to discussing with high achieving students that they work hard rather than they have natural talent.]]> 2020-08-20 00:29:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688489654 Michael Peterson michaelpeterson1 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688490979 This is important to me because, while it may be true, it does nothing to encourage a great work ethic when it comes to a practice routine for students. ]]> 2020-08-20 00:30:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688490979 Michael Peterson michaelpeterson1 https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/688491699 I will make sure to have signage in my classroom revolving around work ethic so that I can reference that during class.

I believe that it is extremely important to continue to praise students for the process over the product and that is something that I am going to do the rest of my teaching career and hopefully one day when I become a part as well. Instilling in my own child how important their effort is and not worrying so much about the end product. ]]> 2020-08-23 18:10:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jessicaaprilwilliams/pnxta7wcpx2scai3/wish/693467578
