The first day of school is almost here! Teachers here at York Middle School have been working hard to get ready for the big day. I have been in organizing my classroom and going through trainings to help with the fantastic changes that are happening this year. I am so excited to try new things this year and grow my brain!
I have been reading about the growth mindset, and wanted to attach a fantastic and well written article that I just read this morning. It is a good Introduction to growth mind set and I encourage parents and students alike to read it. It is written by the man who started Khan academy. It is not too long, not too complicated.....just about right.
I am looking forward to talking about growth mindset with my students, and encouraging them to take risks......to make mistakes.....to stretch their minds.....to grow their brains along with me this year! I also look forward to working with parents to help make this the best 7th grade year ever for their students! Here is the link to the article.....enjoy!
