成長マインドセットを育てる: ジャーナリングとディスカッションクラス

Growth mindset...what does it mean? In this four-week course, your child will learn the difference between a growth mindset and a fixed mindset through journaling, individual/group activities & teacher-prompted discussion.

Week 1: We will define the terms growth mindset and fixed mindset. Your child and their peers will discuss the difference between them and share which one they feel they have. They will begin to explore ways to improve their mindset and discuss how improving their mindset could improve their happiness. Journal prompts will be given.

Week 2: A quick summary of week one will occur. Next, your child will be given an opportunity to talk about any experiences they had with using the new growth mindset concepts they learned. They will be introduced to more growth mindset ideas and a new journal prompt will be given. Learners will be allowed to share their journal entries and any questions/ concerns will also be asked/answered during this time. 

Week 3: Group activities and journal writing will continue as your child explores new ways to improve their mindset. Group discussions will take place on how to handle difficult situations with a positive outlook. A journal prompt will be given with time to complete the prompt and time for discussion. 

Week 4: A recap of the concepts learned throughout the course will take place. Your child and their peers will be allowed to discuss how being mindful of their mindset has improved their lives over the length of this course. Final journal prompts will be given and if time allows, a final group activity will be completed. 

*There will be occasional worksheets and short portions of videos shared during the class to help learners understand the material. All learners will be encouraged to participate in group discussions and activities however, they will be allowed to listen quietly and complete their activities individually if they so choose. This course is designed to help your child develop and/or improve their mindset.
