We are cruising through September and loving every second! The third graders have been very busy getting to know classmates, understanding the rules and expectations, setting goals and learning about mindset. We have spent a lot of our time learning about a growth mindset vs. a fixed mindset and what that looks and sounds like. The third graders were also introduced to the mindset stances: optimism, flexibility, resilience, persistence and empathy. We have had many discussions, read alouds, videos and even some role playing to help us understand what these mean! Ask your child what kind of mindset they have!
