The second window for giving this survey to the students will be open from now until March 4th.
Two classes of students (with a minimum of 15 each) must be given the survey. I believe that most teachers gave the surveys to two classes in December. However, if you did NOT survey two classes and still need to administer to another class, please let me know as soon as possible. I will need to give you student logins so the survey can be given. Thanks! How many of you have heard a student say "I can't learn this" or "I'm just not good at math (or any other subject)"? Many of our students are stuck in a "Fixed Mindset" and just give up, not understanding that with effort they can learn! A student's mindset has a direct impact on their success, in school and in future endeavors.
Below is a powerpoint highlighting the differences between fixed and growth mindsets. It would be interesting to see where your own mindset is...what effect do our words have on our students' mindset? I also found a quiz that the students can take and put in their Interactive Notebooks if they have one. It would be a great Week 1 activity for next year. In lieu of a professional learning day, I would appreciate seeing your comments about the powerpoint and/or quiz on here. There may be a drawing for a "Sweet" surprise for those that participate:) |
