Grades K - 2: Video Directions for Today's Lesson
Grades K - 2: Meet Mojo as he learns about Growth Mindset on Class Dojo.
Grades 3 & 4: Meet Dr. Nagler in this video. See if you can figure out why he's so excited about making a mistake.
Grades K - 4: What do you do when something is out of your control? Sometimes accidents happen. Sometimes we experience bad weather. Sometimes someone else doesn't treat us with respect. But we can have growth mindset when we work on focusing on things we CAN control. Draw or write your answers to this worksheet to focus on what you CAN control. HINT: Look for the Responsibility Circles picture to your right. It might help you to start to think about what you can control!
