New Mindset




How powerful is mindset?

As we go into our state testing for the year, I had a talk with my students.  Actually, all of their teachers had a talk with them.  Our building called it PARCC Boot Camp. (Named after the PARCC test)

As the students were hearing the "You are ready and You will rock this test" message all day long, there was magic.  Our kids were feeling pumped up and ready to tackle the test.  They reflected on all of their growth and pointed out evidence of their success and readiness!

Their minds were made up.  Their minds were positive and ready.  They took on a confident mindset and were looking at the test as a positive challenge.

Now-

Can it last throughout the two weeks of testing?

I think it can...if we continue the mindset.



Be Mindful.

Peace.
