About this resource

Cultivate a Growth Mindset in your class with these high-quality motivational & inspirational posters. Perfect for secondary school & adult students. Looks great on any classroom wall! Includes Lesson Plan that highlights activities & strategies to introduce Growth Mindset thinking to your students.

"A person with a fixed mindset believes that his or her intelligence is static, while a person with a growth mindset believes that his or her intelligence can be developed. The latter group is thus more likely to embrace challenges, persist in the face of setbacks, and see effort as a natural path to mastery. The distinction between these two extremes has tremendous implications for motivation, productivity, and confidence; in the pursuit of success, mindset is everything."

The benefits of fostering a growth mindset in a classroom are multiple, and can truly have lasting effects on your students. Yeats said that education was "not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire". Utilising a growth mindset is giving the students the kindling and a box of matches so that they blaze a path to success for their lives.

Lesson plans gives you various ideas of how to use the posters (of course, you can just put them on the wall if you're just looking to inspire students) and there is a PPT containing all the quotes and posters, so that you can go through them together as a class!
