Having a growth mindset has never been more important than now. In this fast-paced world, our students face new challenges each and every day. This is why having a growth mindset is so necessary. But what exactly does this mean?

What Does It Mean to Have a Growth Mindset?

Students with a growth mindset believe they can improve and learn more as long as they put in the effort and extra practice. Having this growth mindset can help our students overcome obstacles they may face when learning something new or developing a new skill. It is all about persistence and determination.

Use this set of worksheets with your students to help them develop a growth mindset. They are great to use as a stand-alone activity when you feel your students say “I can’t” more than “I can” or after a social-emotional learning lesson on the growth mindset. Either way, these worksheets will make your students think more positively!
