This is one of my FAVORITE ways to teach growth mindset - the concept of “yet” is one that students can easily grasp and apply.

And it’s so fun to make it a part of your classroom by…

🌟Modeling this when you’re demonstrating new skills: “I can’t figure this problem out YET…”
🌟Having the poem or just the word “Yet” displayed prominently in the classroom as a visual reminder for students
🌟Encouraging students to say “I don’t get this… YET” (trust me, if you start celebrating this, it will catch on!)

If you want the “Yet” Crown freebie to introduce this concept to your students, comment CROWN!

🚨Freebie Alert!! This digital slides reward chart requires ZERO prep - no more spending hours tracing or drawing anchor charts 🎉🎉🎉

Here’s how it works:
