Are you looking for a resource that will help your students to develop goal setting and growth mindset through reflection and self monitoring? This resource is designed to be used over the course of a year, so that there is a record of self evaluation taken by students throughout the year.  Self reflection and monitoring are skills that we all need for life. This resource will engage your students throughout the school year, and at the end they have a record of achievements and changes that they have made as they have grown. Developing a positive mindset amongst your students is such an important and integral part of the hidden curriculum, but basic to all of our daily lives. It is not a skill that comes easily and one that needs to be explicitly taught and fostered to enable your students to build a positive mindset. This can be added to your students portfolio as a record of achievements and for reflection. Photocopy extra pages as needed, and I hope that this resource serves you well throughout the year. Suitable for students in middle to upper primary grades. This is an instant download pdf file for you to print and use with your students. Teaching suggestions are included. The best part? This resource requires NO PREP and is easy to use. You can choose to print these pages for students to use a printable journal or booklet.

This set of cards and teacher notes contains 24 Scenario cards with blank multicultural faces on them. They can be used laminated as playdough mats or to draw on with whiteboard markers.

How would their eyes look? Would they have wrinkles on their forehead? Why or why not? How would their mouth look?I have included smaller versions of the cards so that students could use these in barrier games where one child makes a face, and then has to describe to a partner what their face looks like (there is a book or screen between them) This is a wonderful activity for talking and listening.
