Growth Mindset Philosophy


Failure is extremely important in the growth mindset.
Every failure is one step in the right direction when we look at that failure and learn from it.
The shift of celebrating, or at least finding value in failure and wrong answers is a beautiful shift for students to accept. 
You should NEVER be afraid to try and fail. Failing means you are trying. Trying means you are learning.
Failure gives us valuable information.
Failure means we are trying to grow our thinking.
Failure means we are getting close to an answer.
Failure means there is a better answer that will come out of failing.
When we fail, we engage in the entire learning process because we can’t get it right the first time all the time.
