Recognizing Mistakes Improves Our Brain! | Middle School Lesson 1

Did you know that your brain can change and grow? And that you get to choose to get smarter? It all starts with recognizing mistakes as opportunities to learn something new. -------- MINEOLA GROWS is building a “Learner’s Guide to Learning.” When students understand that they are in control of their brains, they are empowered to learn, to grow, and to seek out challenges for a lifetime of learning. Mineola Grows helps learners foster this skill through an understanding of age-appropriate neuroscience. Our collection of video lessons, in-classroom activities, and Professional Development are based on over a decade of research and exploration into Growth Mindset best-practices. Mineola Grows is a project from the Mineola Union Free School District and is, of course, always growing. Twitter: Web:
