Each poster displays a fixed mindset in the soil, and a growth mindset in the flower. They can be used to explicitly teach students how to reframe their thinking.
The following fixed mindset > growth mindsets are included:
- This is good enough > Is this really my best work?
- I can't make this any better > I can always improve!
- I don't understand > What am I missing?
- I'm not very good at this > I'm on the right track. Keep going!
- I made a mistake > Mistakes help me to improve!
- I give up > I'll try a different strategy.
- This is too hard > This may take some time and effort.
- I'll never be as smart as them > I'm smart in different ways.
- They are better at this than me > What can I learn from them?
- Others are better at this than me > I'll keep practising and train my brain.
- This is impossible > I'm not afraid of a challenge!
- I can't do it > I'm going to keep trying until I can.
