PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:

This product also includes 35 posters for a bulletin board that explains each topic above (as of 10/23/17, a black-and-white copy of these posters is also included). A pre-assessment and a post-assessment are also included as well as sample answers or notes for each activity.

This daily growth mindset activity product is for YOU if you struggle to squeeze in growth mindset instruction or don’t know how to teach it. Your students will get instruction in EVERY AREA of growth mindset with the topics covered!

Please look at the activities in this product to best determine how and when to utilize it in your class. Some students or groups can use them as a warm-up, bell ringer, or independent station activity. Other students or groups may need a bit more support depending on their exposure to growth mindset concepts.

There are SAMPLE ANSWERS available at the end of this file. There are rarely any “correct” answers, as most warm-ups are created for students to reflect on their thinking and growth. Occasionally, there will be a tip or trick in the sample answers. Those are there to guide you but should not be viewed as an exclusive or ultimate idea for approaching a topic.

35 posters correspond to each of the 35 concepts presented. Please note that there are 40 weeks of warm-ups, but 5 of those weeks are reserved for self-reflection (and there is NOT a corresponding poster for those weeks).

The growth mindset pre-assessment and post-assessment are designed as reflection tools. These are not designed to be graded or evaluated formally but used to reflect on changes in thinking and behavior (most of the questions are the same so that students have a clear way to compare shifts in their thinking).

The scaled questions with emojis on many Thursday exercises are designed for students to reflect on their feelings about the given topic. Students can share their thoughts with a partner, a small group, or the entire class. There are no incorrect answers for these exercises.

Each 8th week (Week 8, Week 16, Week 24, Week 32, and Week 40), there is an opportunity for students to reflect on their learning, their growth, and the areas they want to continue to work on. The inventory on these weeks will have statements that are REPEATED from previous weeks. It is a good idea to ask students to save their warm-ups for each 8 weeks so that they can compare some of their inventory answers (looking for growth, in particular).

At the very end of this product, you will find an OPTIONAL cover page and Table of Contents that you can use IF YOU CHOOSE TO BIND all the activities together for each student at the beginning of the year (or the beginning of the instruction). If you copy one sheet per week, your students will not need those pages.

NOTE: THIS FILE INCLUDES A DIGITAL DISTANCE LEARNING OPTION!

This product includes a digital option (as well as the no prep printable option). The instructions for utilizing the digital portion appear at the end of the packet.

This PDF file includes 195 pages + Google Slides.

  44. Kalyssa West 

    I’m using this product for the first time this year. I hope my student’s are successful.

  45. Willie R

    This Growth Mindset bundle is exactly what I have been looking for! I feel that it is geared perfectly for my 3rd graders. Meaningful day to day activities that will guide them to identifying when growth mindset is put into action. I will personally be using this during a transition time to get my students back on track and ready to learn! My only criticism is that the images are not editable. There were a few images that I would have replaced with images that were more familiar to my students and their interests. Other than that, this is perfect!

    This is amazing and has really helped my Gifted students who are used to things coming easy to them. They have struggled to really adopt the growth mindset until we started these as morning work DAILY. It is in their brain and they are learning about the different ways they can apply it.

  176. Myra G

    I made a booklet for each student and used this to start our day. Although, I teach 4th grade I wanted the assignments to be easy enough for students to handle without assistance. This worked perfectly, but I feel that some of my higher students could have handled the 4th grade version. Awesome resource! Thanks!!! I will use again.

  177. Jennifer W

    I was looking for bell work that student’s could do independently but had a purpose. I am so excited to introduce this into our morning and allow students time to share and reflect to start the day off right!

  178. Conscious Kids 

    This was a great growth mindset journal for my special education classroom! They loved doing a short activity each day and the consistency and predictability was great! I supplemented with videos and other activities and it made for a lot of personal growth@

    VERY excited to use this product this year.

    I am really excited to use this with my 4th graders this year!

  205. Elis G

    School started this week and we started their journals right away. I teach a self-contained classroom for students with Emotional/behavior deficits and this is perfect for them. The daily warm ups aren’t to long, but they still give us a great basis for discussion and fits in great with the Social Emotional Learning curriculums I use at my school. I have 4/5th graders this year but choose the one for younger students because they can be more independent with it, especially for my ones who are academically behind.

  206. Jennifer Ryan 

    Well thought out package! I look forward to jumping into daily growth mindset activities with my students

  207. Tracey M

    This is wonderful, and it provides so much insight as to how your students perceive learning. Thank you!

  208. Iryna B

    Great Resource

  209. Annsley H

    This resource changed the mindset of so many students in my classroom last year. Test scores, behavior, attendance and more was GREATLY improved. They used the vocabulary and lessons throughout the day. Looking forward to seeing the growth in my classroom this year!

  231. Cara L

    My third grade class has loved working through these each morning as they come in. My students who struggle with the reading and vocabulary don’t mind asking a classmate for help because they’re enjoying the short tasks and what they are learning about.

  235. Hannah G

    Great warm up!

    I teach Growth Mindset as a unit each year. I decided to try something different this year. I like that these activities are spread out in a way that I can use it across the entire year!

  252. Shaun A

    Love it, I use this almost daily but most definitely weekly. Kids often refer back to a concept they have learned. So cool!

  253. Gicela S

    Students have enjoyed doing the activities.

  254. Amanda Ang 

    The Friday activities are a good summary of each week’s focus, so I only used those pages for my class. Since I do not have lessons with my class every day, the Friday activities were engaging enough. Wonderful resource! Love the posters!

    I used this for morning work and I loved how it made my students think deeper about themselves!

  256. Jeannie P

    My students love this!

  260. Kasandra S

    Love, love, love this resource and how much it enhanced my students confidence!

  261. Delisa K

    Love, love, love this!

  262. Sheryl G

    I am so excited to be able to have a whole year’s worth of “mindfulness…mindset” materials preprinted in a journal for my returning students in the fall. I was pleased with the previously recorded reviews and that is why I purchased this resource. My brother who teaches secondary science in California saw the journals and he purchased an upper grade journal for his classroom. Thank you!!!

  263. Laurie W

    Love this package. Use it every day with my kids. They live and breathe growth mindset because of this resource. Thank you!

  264. Phoebe L

    Used for hybrid learning, grateful I can project it or send it to my students at home!

  265. Lindsay M

    I love this resource! I am so excited to use this as “Morning Work” for Remote Learning. Thank you!

  266. D’s Elementary Delights 

    I will be using this for our morning work.
    This will be a great way for students to learn about a growth mindset.

  267. Deanna I

    My son struggled during the coronavirus shutdowns and was very hard on himself. This has helped him to remember all of the things he can do to make himself stronger and feel more confident. Thank you!

  268. savannah gentle 

    Absolutely amazing resource! Love the digital component!

  269. Marilu R

    User friendly! look forward to using weekly

  270. Alison K

    Love using this during check ins and revisit Growth Mindset

  271. Kimberly H

    I am super excited to share this with my third graders!

  272. Suzanne C

    I am extremely please with this resource. I have used Growth Mindset in my 5th grade classroom for several years. This year I needed a new resource because I am teaching 4th grade this year and looping back to 5th grade. I love the content and how it is presented. It will pair nicely with my 5th grade bell-ringer. Worth the money!

  273. Meghan T

    Great resource for teaching growth mindset with limited time each day!

  274. Stephanie S

    Great Product

  275. Brooke W

    I love this! It gets the students thinking in so many ways!

  276. Jacques’s Junction 

    I really enjoy this product with my special education students. It is very thorough. There are minor differences on the Google Slides and paper/pencil versions but it does not impact the whole product. It is worth every penny. We have been using it every morning.

  277. The Chamber of 2nd Grade Secrets  

    This book is absolutely AMAZING! I am so pleased with it and we are only on week 4! My students really enjoy starting each morning off with their journals and having a weekly focus topic. Thank you for creating such an engaging, informing, and creative resource!

  278. Melissa L

    Loved it!

  279. Rebekah Rau 

    Excellent resource! I highly recommend. Low prep, quick activities for the students to do that reinforce the concepts behind growth mindset. Thank you!

  280. Cathy Nelson 

    I have been using this for my morning work. The resource is nicely laid out and I like the supporting pictures of each weekly topic. I am finding that many of my students are not able to complete the activities independently but need some help with reading and understanding the skills. A great resource though with some good conversations. We find that we are talking about skills and topics that we have learned about weeks later!

  281. Patricia C

    This has been a great addition to start the morning off for students. It is a low key activity that brings up important discussions of life skills.

  282. Joining Mrs J 

    My students are doing great with this resource! They love learning more about their brains. This is also a great and quick morning work. Nothing too strenuous first thing in the morning.

  283. Michelle Smith 

    Great resource thanks!

  284. Taylor M

    Loved using these as warm ups for our class. Some of the days aren’t as long/as thought provoking as other days of the week, so sometimes I would combine Thursday & Friday, for example. All in all, a great resource to open discussion and create lessons on growth mindset.

  285. FADWA M

    I love this! I use it every school morning throughout the year to start off a class discussion.

  286. Emily Taylor 

    We use this every week during our Character Building time. The students love it and enjoy reflecting each week!

  287. Sandra F

    I have loved using this material, the kids love doing these activities. There is lots of wonderful discussion taking place. Thank you so much for creating this!

  288. Maureen N

    I teach 4th grade and bought the younger version. I use it everyday when the students are returning after lunch. They are awesome! I like the reflection lessons that have the kids think about their understanding of Growth Mindset. I also love the quotes.

  289. Courtney L

    This was exactly what I was looking for. I am using this as morning work for both virtual and in person students. We then discuss each day. Students are enjoying completing this daily and it has been a great way to include more social/emotional learning in to our day. Thank you!

  290. Stephanie D

    This is a great way to start the day

  291. Kathy K

    We do one a day after our morning meeting. It’s a great discussion starter!

  292. Amy I

    Love this resource, just wish the digital was more interactive instead of just being a the pdf on a slide.

  293. Stephanie Dickinson 

    Love it!

  294. Tina Houy 

    Loved it

  295. Rebecca J

    Love this resource!

  296. Megan D

    I made slides from the prompts and added videos with each lesson. My students absolutely loved this for morning meeting time!

  297. Dayna P

    I’ve enjoyed using this resource immensely! It gives the teacher a growth mindset theme to focus on each week and it gives a thoughtful starting off point each morning for the students to think about and to discuss during morning meeting!

  298. Romelia N

    This is a great resource! Thanks for creating and sharing!

  299. Nancy Lee K 

    This growth mindset journal was exactly what I was looking for. It is educational to teach how our brains work, and it is helping the students to reflect on their own learning, feelings, and practices. It is perfect for bell ringer, morning work.

  300. Victory Lane Learning 

    I am SO excited to be using this with my class! I had downloaded a freebie sample of it about a year ago and the full pack has been on my wish list since then. This is a great change to my morning work routine to get the kids in a positive mindset for the day! Thank you!

  301. van D

    Thank you!

  302. Diana Solorio 

    This is an awesome resource. I love it!

  303. Stickies and Sharpies 

    These have helped my students so much!

  304. Courtney C

    This resource is incredible! Social emotional learning is always important but even more so during such a crazy school year. We started the year fully virtual and I assigned these to my students each day as part of their asynchronous work. We went over them during our virtual class sessions as well as going more in-depth with the weekly topics. My 3rd graders really enjoyed completing them and sharing their responses! It was amazing to listen to their growth mindset shift as the year went on and hear them remind each other when things were tough that they just couldn’t get it YET. These lessons continued when we returned to in-person learning and I used them as morning work that we went over during our morning meeting each day. This product is very organized and set-up perfectly so that each week builds upon the previous week. I do feel that the short survey days each week could have been combined with another day, but overall, this is a fantastic resource for helping students to expand their growth mindset! Show more

  305. kathryn O

    Our class had some really great conversations while working through this journal. I feel like I saw a difference in attitudes and behaviors in the classroom. I even heard students encouraging each other using the growth mindset vocabulary.

  306. Le monde de l’immersion 

    Great thank you!

  307. Abigail D

    This is an incredibly thorough, well-built resource that leads students to a deep understanding of growth mindset! It allows for plenty of self-reflection and engages them with great pictures and quotes. I love this!

  308. URIAH F

    I have only used week 1 of this resource but I have enjoyed it and my students have enjoyed it as well. I love the concept and I am excited for my students to continue their learning of a growing mind and to overcome obstacles instead of staying stuck.

  309. Kimberly M

    love this!

  310. Taylor Anderson 

    The packet is self-explanatory so they third graders can get started right away. They are short, simple but meaningful daily activities that follow the same format weekly.

  311. Sydney B

    Perfect fit for my students!

  312. Elizabeth R

    One of the best resources I used last year! My kids loved the short prompts and we had some great discussions and sharing come out of it. Lessons built from week to week and students often referred back to it. Having a predictable routine (emoji check-in, write about it, etc.) was terrific. Can’t wait to use with my class this year! 🙂

  313. Sarah P

    What a great resource that is much needed for many kiddos!

  314. TeetersThird 

    My students loved this and it was easy to implement! Thank you!

  315. Melanie C

    Very engaging and has brought on good discussions for work ethic and responsibility.

  316. Love From Miss H 

    This is the absolute best, and it’s helping facilitate the best convos with my class this year.

  317. Jenifer E

    This was a great resource for use with a small group work to develop growth mindset.

  318. Adventurous Educator 

    I love this resource! It was used with third graders as bellwork last year. Sometimes they struggled to come up with responses for the prompts. Since it was a bellwork time, I wasn’t always readily available to help reword the prompt for them. I used it as both paper/pencil packets and online at various times throughout the year. Based on my experience with it in third grade, I haven’t introduced it to my second graders yet this year. Once we’ve developed a bit more stamina, we’ll definitely be working on this, but at a time when I am available to read the prompts and assist.

  319. Katie Norman 

    I really like this resource!

  320. Shelly D

    I can’t tell you enough how much I love and appreciate this resource! It is engaging, thorough, and spot=on to help students learn and use growth mindset!

  321. Tanesha Harris 

    Great resource for my students!

  322. Tracy F

    I have every grade level for this pack and they are all AMAZING

  323. Dawn O

    This is some of the best morning work I’ve ever done with my students–it really gets them thinking about having a growth mindset! They love all the writing activities!

  324. cherie F

    My students love this activity

  325. Amy E

    I LOVE this resource. I use it as morning work. It’s a great way to start the day on a positive note talking about how we and why our brains help us learn and why it’s important to have a growth mindset and not a fixed mindset. I would highly recommend this resource for any classroom!

  326. WackyWorldofMrsS 

    OUTSTANDING resource! I used these Growth Mindset Activities during my morning meeting with my special education students who have Oppositional Defiant Disorder. This resource allowed them to take ownership in their learning, helped them learn more about how they learn, and was a great way to start each day. The posters and self-assessments were also very well-designed, and my students truly benefited from all the activities in this resource. Thank you so much!

  327. Julie T

    Great resource for daily practice in Growth Mindset.

  328. Maria Staman 

    Great resource. Thank you!

  330. Stacey J

  331. Britney Cardman 

    We do this every morning as a way to start the day on a positive note. Students love it and I am also learning so much! 🙂

  332. Margaret F

    Thank you for sharing this quality resource!
    Homeschooling this year due to pandemic and was thrilled to find your materials.
    I was looking for a fun, systematic, and comprehensive way to introduce my children to the concept of “growth mindset”! We all look forward to each daily lesson!

  333. Lauren C

    I love the different prompts and the ways this resource sums of topics in small parts in a student-friendly way. We use it in my class weekly. My students benefit from some pre-teaching and supplemental books, videos, and class discussions before they can attempt the reflection tasks. Great resource!!

  334. Nancy L

    These journal activities have been great for my class! I love the different topics to be talked about each week. I have enjoyed seeing the growth out of my students.

  335. Leslie Rose 

    My students have enjoyed this product. They have learned a lot over the course of the school year, and I look forward to using it again in the future.

  336. Teaching With Mrs Wiswell 

    AWESOME SEL resource! Thank you!

  337. Jamie G

    Love this resource. So great.

  338. Julie R

    Love the week by week themes and daily opportunities to think and respond.

  339. Julie E

    Great resource to learn and reinforce Growth Mind set.

  340. The Research-Based Teacher 

    I love these, and my students do as well! I use the daily prompts for my morning meetings. I find online videos to help introduce the concepts and discuss them. I have recommended these to other teachers on my campus. Thank you!

  341. Michelle S

    Great resource for SEL or morning work.

  342. Jenny E

    Using with my homeschooler for social emotional learning. Perfect layout for daily discussion. Thank you.

  343. Katie O

    I have practiced Growth Mindset in my classroom for the last two years. I just came across this resource and I am so excited to put it to use this year! I have already set up journals for my kids to use! I love that it includes the posters too.

  344. MissShelbyK 

    I use this as morning work for my students. The skills taught are excellent and the prompts each day are too. We then use the skill and prompt to guide our SEL learning during morning meeting.

  345. Kimberly K

    My students enjoy the daily discussion and “tiny” box for writing about their thinking. It is helping them to have a better understanding of how we think and make decisions to try or give-up. It’s very enlightening.

  346. graphicteeteacher 

    Absolute game-changer!! My kids look forward to writing in their journals everyday! Thank you so much for this!

  347. Holly K

    A great resource that allows students to think about themselves and allows the teacher to learn more about their students!

  348. Janelle Foster 

    This is a very engaging morning work journal. My students really like thinking about themselves and all the questions these ask.

  349. Barbara S

    Great resource!

  350. Amanda R

    This is a great resource and starts our day on the right note with the right mindset.

  351. Joanne S

    This was such a great resource to use with my class every day. Short prompts that often led to meaningful class discussions as well.

  352. 3rdGradeRuckus 

    This has been a great resource for my students to apply what we are learning every day during our Mind Up / SEL focus time!

  353. hoda Z

    I enjoy using this resource as morning work for my students. It’s extra reading and writing practice and I’m excited to see how their thinking grows in the end of the year! At times they do get confused and end up finishing a few days instead of one (for example they would do monday and tuesday instead of just monday) but it’s something we’re still working on!

  354. Lynn H

    Love this!!!!

  355. Studious Learners 

    My students do this every morning as soon as school starts. It helps to remind them about the topic of growth mindset while giving them a independent task to do in the morning. I highly recommend!

  356. Amy Dahmke 

    My students have really enjoyed these morning pages. I have them spiral bound and it is a great way to start the day!

  357. Deanna N

    So far this has been really great! It gives us the weekly topic and the small daily activities really work well to guide us along in a better understanding.

  358. Rachel Billups 

    We start every morning with our journal and it produces great conversation with the class. I think it has helped to build up our classroom community.

  359. Angela K

    A great morning starter for the students to think about how they can have a great day and a great mindset.

  360. Jeanne T

    I was looking for something to have my students do right when they come to class, that allowed them to develop self-efficacy, self-regulation, confidence, and more. With this tool, students are able to reflect on themselves as a person and look internally for what they need to see in themselves. I look forward to seeing how they grow through the year.

  361. Julie A B

    Great resource. Our school goal this year is growth mindset and I was looking for something to guide me and my class through the main principles and this is it!

  362. Patricia C

    Growth mindset is great for our students these add extra practice for them.

  363. Mrs Preece’s PiecesJanuary 26, 2018

Q & A

What grade bundle would you recommend since I teach 3rd, 4th and 5th as a special? Sheryl Vitale asked on January 4, 2023

Hey Sheryl thanks for reaching out!

I would probably recommend the 4th and up because I do believe that most 3rd graders could do it.

However, you know your students better than I, so I would recommend downloading the free version of both so that you have a sample to look at. All topics are similar layouts etc., so you will be able to determine the best fit for your class by downloading the free sample.

Here is the free sample for 2nd-3rd https://www.kirstenskaboodle.com/product/free-growth-mindset-bell-ringer-warm-ups-2nd-3rd-grade/

Here is the free sample for 4th and Up https://www.kirstenskaboodle.com/product/free-growth-mindset-bell-ringer-warm-ups-4th-up/

I hope this helps.

Much gratitude,
Kirsten
