A Growth Mindset is better because if you have a Fixed Mindset then like I

said you don't really get anywhere you just think, "This is where I am, I can't do

anything to change that." If you have a Growth Mindset you can say, "No I can get

better at this," and you won't give up which is really important because if you

don't give up because you aren't going to make it the first time everybody's

going to have a challenge in life or challenges and you're going to have to

overcome them and it's going to probably take more than one try.

Growth Mindset is when you're going to overcome your problems and Fixed Mindset is when you

don't want to overcome it you just say, "This is my answer and this is what it's going to be."

We learn from our mistakes and then we soon get it,

but having a Growth Mindest means that you never give up

you keep going when you learn from your mistakes because if you give up then you don't

feel like you don't want to fix it then you're not learning from your mistakes.

When you make a mistake it helps you learn.

Making mistakes is kind of actually a good thing because it helps you learn.

I think sometimes when a teacher calls on you and you get the wrong answer,

People get embarrassed or upset because they want to be right.

But you learn from it. It's better to make mistakes.

A lot of times before I'd be like I felt like I had standards to live up to, like if

I got one problem right but if I didn't get the other problem right then I didn't reach my standard you know

now it feels better knowing that I can make mistakes.

I kind of realized that if you just say that you're smart you can't get any better and you're really

really smart all the time or vice versa

that you won't really get anywhere you have to keep learning and accept that you

aren't the best or the worst at anything

it all depends on what you do to accomplish what you want.

We have a class pledge and one of the rules is

I will do my best even if it is hard

So my class is always trying their best

Sometimes we need a little bit of help

but we work through our struggles and we make it happen.

We promise to be fair. We promise to help when someone needs help.

We promise to be as nice as we can be. We promise to be good listeners.

We promise to try our best even when it's hard.

We promise to make smart choices in classwork, friendships and behaviors.

We will do these things even when no one is watching.
