As I reflect over the last five weeks over all the concepts that I have learned about, I am excited about actually teaching growth mindset (vs. fixed mindset) to my first graders. In Dweck's Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, she outlines four steps to a true growth mindset. For my first assignment for this class, I found activities to help with the first week of school.

As a teacher, we are pushed in all directions to learn "different" ways to teach and sometimes my fixed mindset (she has a name and it is "Fanny") tells me that I will just never get it. I have so much to learn. The growth will continue...
