Growth vs. Fixed Mindset

Having the right mindset is crucial for success in both kids and adults. When children understand that they are capable of getting better at something through learning and practice, they feel empowered and less fearful of failure. In this social emotional learning worksheet, students collaborate to write and perform a skit that demonstrates their shared understanding of a growth vs. fixed mindset. Designed for fourth and fifth graders, this mindfulness activity can help kids improve self-awareness and empower them to keep trying when the road gets rough.
