Power of 'Not Yet'... Rewarding a Growth Mindset
Effort will produce results. Let's reward activity-the not yet.
Growth mindset studies the effects of rewarding effort in students who are more likely to take on a challenge and have growth mindsets focused on what they can do to grow as opposed to a fixed mindset that focus only on what you know now.
Mastery-building a solid foundation
Let's focus on mastery-not just test scores
Building a strong house begins with the foundation. Skills for academic success are the product of solid foundational skills. Mastery-based learning focuses on building strong base skills which one can build upon for a strong future. We utilize khan materials and supports to help students master their fundamentals for a strong future.
Grit-The Power of Passion and Perseverence
Failure is one step on the road to success
Learning from the little mistakes, one at a time, builds our resilience. This grown resilience allows us to face the bigger challenges of the future with grit and perseverance. We know its not the end. We don't need to be anxious. We have overcome obstacles before. We are stronger because of it. Unlock grit with passion for our future and the knowledge that we need to persevere to achieve it.
