Growth Mindset
Growth Mindset
Year One have been learning about the two types of mindsets that children and grown-ups can have, a ‘fixed’ mindset and a ‘growth’ mindset. Have a look below at what a 'fixed' mindset is and what a 'growth' mindset is....
I like my work to be easy
I don’t like to try a challenge
I want people to praise me for how clever I am
I believe I cannot change how clever I am
I don’t like to try new things because I won’t be very good at it
I give up easily
I never give up
I like my work to be difficult – it means I am learning
I love challenges
I want people to praise me for the effort I put into my work
I believe I can get more intelligent by working hard
I feel clever when I’m learning something new
I learn from my mistakes
