This week in Primary 2 the children have been learning about Growth Mindsets.\u00a0 We watched a video clip about Mojo, a friendly monster who loves school.\u00a0 Mojo loved maths but decided he wasn’t smart enough when the maths problems got a little bit too tricky for him and he wanted to leave.\u00a0 His friend helped him to see that his brain was a muscle and if he gave his brain exercise by practising his maths and working hard, his brain would become stronger and he would become smarter.\u00a0 We had a lovely discussion about fixed and growth mindsets following the video clip (which can be found on Youtube – Growth Mindset for Students – Episode 1\/5<\/em>) and then read and discussed the book\u00a0Your Fantastic Elastic Brain Stretch It, Shape It\u00a0<\/em>by JoAnn Deak.\u00a0 The children will continue to learn about a growth mindset throughout this term and I look forward to seeing the changes in their thinking as they move to develop more of a growth mindset towards their learning.<\/p>\n
