Description
Do you have students who have a difficult time doing anything that is a little challenging for them? Do they quit right away? Do they think they are "dumb" if they make mistakes? Do they think if something is challenging, it means they aren't smart?
This interactive PowerPoint is specifically for these kids. It's designed to get kids to go from a fixed mindset (I'm just not good at math/reading) to a growth mindset (I can become better at math/reading.) Works great on Smartboards too!
Mac-friendly and Google Slides version available.

I created this after I finished the "How to Learn Math" course offered online by Stanford where I learned about the growth mindset theory by Carol Dweck, though it isn't about math - it's about the growth mindset approach to learning. It definitely changed the way I look at teaching, and I've seen my students blossom with this new approach.

Note to Buyers:
The slides will appear to have overlapping text due to the animations, but when played as a slideshow will look normal. I recommend viewing the slideshow before presenting it to the students to become familiar with the way the buttons and slides are formatted.
