Description
Can giftedness be cultivated at a young age? Absolutely, if educators adapt a growth mindset! Many students enter middle school with a fixed mindset so we must start cultivating a growth mindset early. This session builds on Dweck's growth mindset theory as practical ways to support her findings are presented. Strategies include: building a growth mindset culture in your school/district, ways to nurture/maintain growth mindsets in students, and ways to reach parents. Learn strategies that teach young students, educators, and parents about the brain, effort, and the benefits of adapting and nurturing a growth mindset.
