Mindsets in Mathematics

Today year 5 watched this compelling video about the power of mindsets in Math. In a Canvas discussion, students were asked to highlight one thing that stood out to them.

Some of the responses include:
Harrison: The thing that stood out to me most was that if you have a growth mindset you get better and that if you have a fixed mindset you stay how you are.
Otto: Speed does not matter because lots of very smart people were slow when they were young.
Annie: Your brain grows when you make mistakes
Orlando: What stood out to me was that there is no such thing as smart and not smart
Dexter: What AMAZED me was that it’s better to be slow in maths
Amalie: What stood out to me most was that speed is not important and also if you get something wrong, you learn't more than if you got something right.
