Growth Mindset Sort: Be Proactive

Having a growth mindset is one of the first things that the Seven Habits teaches us.  "I have a can do attitude."  In this lesson, I plan to assess how the kids are grasping the concepts of having  a growth versus a fixed mindset.  I've taken common themes and phrases in each mindset, and the students will cut and sort them.  I will allow them to work in groups in hopes that they will have a meaningful
discussion as they work.

7 Habits Bingo

This is a fun game we play in Guidance to review the 7 Habits. I made up scenarios to go along with each habit, read the scenario and the children have to guess which habit it is. They then go to their board and cover that square. It's a great opportunity to see who knows their habits and also discuss the scenarios as we go along.
