Have you ever thougth about what it means to fail? Society paints failutre in a negative ligth, but that's only true if we don't learn from our failures and try again.
The purpose of learning about the growth mindset is to show that learning goes beyond the four walls of school and if we don't accept that we fail on a daily basis, we will never be true lifelong learners.
Knowing what to do when we have failed is a large part of the developmental process, and being able to make changes to avoid continuous failures is a skill that we will practice throughout the year.
It is my job as your child's teacher to be their coach, not their critic. It is my promise to help them navigate failures and come out on the other end as a well-rounded individual.
