Class Dojo: Mojo Puts It All Together

This week we watched the final episode in our mindset series - Episode 5: "Mojo Puts It All Together". (Don't worry, a new series is coming out soon!) As a class, we reviewed what we learned about challenges, growing the brain, growth mindset, and making mistakes.

Check out the video by following the link above, but try not to watch an episode with your child before we have viewed and discussed it as a class (I know it'll be tempting!)

After viewing the video together, ask your child these questions!

1. Sometimes when we are working on a challenging task, we may think, "just try harder." Is there a way to change this phrase?

2. What are some strategies we can use when facing a big challenge, so that we don't burn out?

3. Brainstorm phrases we can use to keep us going when facing a challenge (e.g., "Nice effort trying to solving that math problem!").
