Growth Mindset Assembly
This week, all Forest Hill learners were included in an assembly where the topic was growth mindset and the delivery was rap.
Assembly speaker Dr. Blake Brandes presented on the black top to all Forest Hill Falcons. He explained how the brain is a muscle that can get stronger, and if you're not good at something, you say, "I'm not good at playing piano, yet" as an example. He had students share things they're not good at yet, and the list included math, tennis, reading, Minecraft, jewelry-making, and more. And then he delivered those items in an amazing on-the-spot rap, linked below. Dr. Brandes got the whole audience clapping and chanting, "If I keep going, my mind keeps growing!" An awesome message for every learner. Every classroom also received Dr. Brandes' newest book titled One More Try.
