I am so exited that Castleberry ISD is focusing on Growth Mindset!
In teaching our students about growth mindset and learning, we read the book Awesome Dawson by Chris Gall. In this sci-fi - adventure - fun story, Dawson creates a robot to complete his chores for him so that he can focus on being an inventor. As you can imagine, the robot malfunctions and wreaks havoc all over town. It takes quick thinking, failing, and trying over and over again - to finally shut the robot down!
Following this heroic tale of problem solving, we discussed things we CAN DO at school. It may take WORK, it may take FAILURE, it may HURT, and it will definitely take GRIT - What can we do in school this year? Check out a few of the CE Kindergarten students answers.
