Afrontando el desafío: Desarrollando una mentalidad de crecimiento para superar obstáculos

In this 6 week's online course, students will have fun and be empowered to have a growth mindset. 

Imagine your child's thoughts going from "I can't do that" to " I can’t do that, yet." A small change, but one with a great impact.  We can't always be positive - that's okay and part of the idea of embracing a growth mindset. Learners will complete growth mindset activities and stories each to learn and practice embracing a growth mindset. The activities and stories will supercharge their capacity to learn and grow. The activities will also help them approach things from a different perspective and give them some great tools to achieve their dreams. 

Each week, the class will begin with a short story and learners will dive into exciting activities that will help them learn about and develop a growth mindset. Through fun activities each week, learners will practice some of these skills step by step:
- working hard
- practicing creativity
- trying different things
- not being afraid to make mistakes
- asking for help when they need it

This class will be taught using a blended teaching style of lecture and visual learning (videos and Google Slides). To add, open discussion, class projects, handouts and games will be offered during some class sessions. 

The focus will be on fun, but also be learning important skills to help learners become whatever they want to be. Remember, it is not about being the best, it is about doing your best!
