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.

I have created this worksheet as an assessment or pre-assessment for students learning about Habit 2.  I wanted to see what they remembered from last year, so I gave this to my students in 1st and 2nd. My kindergartners used this as a means of applying what we have learned in Guidance that day about Habit 2.  Hopefully you find it usesful!
