Students will be watching the video/videos and discussing what it means to have a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. They will be given examples and have the opportunity to decide which mindset the thought belongs to. 

Students will then work with a partner or in a group to come up with a growth mindset thought instead of the given fixed mindset thought.
