Learning to Fail and Learning from Failure
Middle school students are surrounded by messages of "Failure is not an option". However, at iMiddle we embrace failure. Failure is a learning tool that fosters growth, new ideas, creative thinking, and success. Two students say it best in this TedxTeen video about Failure. Watch now (9:16)
After watching the video, discuss at your tables/in groups how you are going to embrace failure this year, and learn from it.
Pick your favorite failure quote from below and discuss what this might look like in the life of a middle school student
Failure is the only opportunity to begin again, only this time more wisely (Henry Ford)
If you are not prepared to be wrong, you will never come up with anything original (Ken Robinson)
Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of success (Author Unknown)
Failure is not falling down, but refusing to get back up (Chinese Proverb)
PLEDGE
8th Grade Students have an assembly today. Please take role and head to the auditorium.
7th Graders, you can follow up on the lesson you missed yesterday (Monday). Be sure to watch the video.
6th Graders, take this time to take out your planners. Make sure all pages are filled in. Take out your binders and makes sure you have a tab for each subject. Organize any loose papers and place in the tabs. Now is also a great time to take everything out of your backpack and make sure it is organized. If you finish early, you may use the rest of this time to read, work on classwork or homework.
