I Made a Mistake, but It Is Okay!

In this one time class students will learn that it is okay to answer questions and then learn that the answer is incorrect. They will learn the definition of trial and error and the importance of growing through making mistakes. The teacher will then show and read quotes about mistakes from famous people such as, John F. Kennedy, Oscar Wilde, and more. Students will then be allowed to discuss what they think these quotes mean? Students will be encouraged to stay positive, but give their individual interpretation of the meaning of the quote. After discussing the quotes, the teacher will ask the students to think of a word that that describes what they feel when they get an answer wrong. The teacher will tell the students that they do not have to share this word. They can keep it to themselves or may share it if they choose. Then, the teacher will ask the student what they would like to feel when they get an answer wrong. The teacher will ask the student to write this word on a blank sheet of paper, color the paper, and then keep it as a reminder. The teacher will allow the student to send the word through private chat to the teacher to check for spelling.
