#Slpspedchat Q2: What are some barriers to embracing #growthmindset that you see in your Ss & how do you respond when you see the barriers?
ZajacSLP Oct 5 @ 8:42 PM EDT

#Slpspedchat A2: Ss prior experience of "only 1 right answer" can take away willingness to take risks. I model failing forward. Make it OK.
alisontosches Oct 5 @ 8:43 PM EDT

A1: I talk about the power of "Yet" with my Ss. It is a small word with a lot of power! #Slpspedchat
adaptechcf Oct 5 @ 8:44 PM EDT

A2: fear of failure and getting the answer wrong can be a barrier to growth. I don't want to fail, therefore I won't try #slpspedchat
ZajacSLP Oct 5 @ 8:45 PM EDT
#slpspedchat So true. We must nip fear in the bud and encourage risk taking big and small to show that effort is always worth the reward.

#SlpSpedChat So true! Often in life, the way things are planned isn't what plays out. Adaptive skills & deciding a new route on the fly=key.

#Slpspedchat Q4: Ss do much of their HW at home. How do we share the #GrowthMindset philosophy with Ps that can support the HW hour(s)?

#Slpspedchat A4: Email a @Flipgrid or an email that shares the #GrowthMindset ideals & invite Ps to share their thoughts/interpretations.
