What Teachers Are Saying About This Growth Mindset Activities Classroom Challenge:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I LOVE this product. It keeps the students always focused on growth mindset all year long instead of just a big activity at the beginning of the year and a poster on the wall. I have used it for several years now and it always have students find something new in it every year.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Such a fun activity for homeroom/advisory. This really helped my students understand what a growth mindset is and how to have one. It does take a decent amount of time to prep/set up, but it's definitely worth the time.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently purchased this unit to replace the bellringers in my classes in effort to encourage more ACTIVE learning among my students, and I couldn't be happier with the activities that are included in this package. Not only do the games get all of us, myself included, up, moving and laughing, but the writing samples get my students thinking, engaging in conversation and even heated debates at times, which often leave opportunities for follow-up assignments, essays, research and other related lesson plans. Thank you so much!
