Grade 7 French

Hello students and parents,

Today in 7-4, we had a very interesting conversation in class regarding the students' outlook on French and on life in general. We discussed the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. I encourage you and your parents to have a look at 3 videos that I used as a resource to prepare this class:

1- MIndset: How you can fulfill your potential by Carol Dweck --> Growth mindset
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkE1lC4CpIE (parts of this video)

2- How to teach growth mindset to students in 5 steps.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj5k6KAvt18

3- RSA Animate: How to help every child fulfill their potential.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yl9TVbAal5s

I will be having this discussion with 7-1, 7-2, and 7-3 next week.

Have a great weekend!!

Mme Bernier.
