My Growth Mindset Philosophy As an educator I believe in the growth mindset. A growth mindset by definition is the ability to believe that the most basic activities can be developed through hard work, dedication and lots of practice. I plan to implement a growth mindset into my classroom and school by giving lots of opportunities for students to be challenged while they learn, let them know that failure is ok, model what it looks like, and praise their hard work. The acronym FAIL will be in my classroom which stands for First Attempt In Learning
