Everything you need to run a discussion tomorrow

There are 20 of these lessons in all, each built together with teachers, ready for advisory, homeroom, form time, pastoral care, or any classroom.

The “Fixed vs. Growth Mindset” lesson is one of those 20. I’m making it free so you can try the format and see what a lesson actually includes: the visual, the discussion structure, the materials. Open it and you get everything you need to run a discussion tomorrow:

  • 🖼️
    The visual: open-ended, works from grade 3 all the way up through high school, and even into higher education and university
  • 💬
    Discussion prompts: questions with no right answer, designed to open conversation, not close it
  • 📊
    No-prep slide deck: ready to present, nothing to build
  • 📋
    Implementation guidance: how to use it in advisory, homeroom, form time, pastoral care, or any classroom
  • Framework alignment: Framework alignment plus adaptation notes for language learners and additional-needs students, so you can document and justify it (CASEL, WIDA and MTSS for US schools)
