On Tuesday mornings, each of our K-6 class engages a in Second Step lesson during morning meeting time. This month, we are exploring the concept of Growth Mindset. |
Fostering a growth mindset can enhance students’ academic performance and help them develop crucial life skills like resilience, motivation, and the ability to adapt their learning strategies. Adopting a growth mindset can mean the difference between a student persevering through challenges or giving up.
Here are family links for our first Second Step Unit: Growth Mindset.
