Growth Mindset for Kids: We All Have Brain Power!

Why do kids need to know about Growth Mindsets? Scientists have found that there are two different kinds of mindsets: FIXED MINDSETS and GROWTH MINDSETS. A fixed mindset never changes. In a Fixed Mindset your failures define you like, "I'm no good at dancing!" If I never learn new things or never make new friends, I have a fixed mindset. My growth mindsets can change! When I learn something new or challenging then I have a growth mindset like, "I can't dance yet. If I focus and practice, I can learn to dance."
