Growth Mindset - The Power of "Yet"

In first grade, we have been learning a lot about having a growth mindset as opposed to having a fixed mindset.  A growth mindset allows us to realize that it's okay if we can't do something yet, or haven't learned something yet, because with perseverance and hard work and belief in ourselves we will eventually be able to do that thing or accomplish that goal.  We have learned that an important piece to this is changing how we talk to ourselves!  Instead of telling ourselves that we can't do something, we can say "I can't do that YET!"  Changing our words can change our mindset!
