Abstract or Description
Mindset has been a "hot topic" over the last few years. Encouraging students to foster a growth mindset can lead to students not giving up when faced with a challenging problem, which ties in directly to SMP #1. Participants will engage in mindset activities, learn how mindset activities impacted former students, and discuss how you might use mindset activities with your students.
