Something To help us grow
7 Mindsets - The Time Is Now
Elementary students at this stage in life do not always allow themselves to be vulnerable due to fear of failure or peer judgement. In this lesson, students will learn why being vulnerable helps us to grow and learn.
Ice Breaker Video -
https://safeshare.tv/x/ss5a8503cc1e1db
Video 2: (5 min 22 sec) Jabari Jumps
Video Link Prompt (before showing video): Let’s watch this video about a little boy named Jabari who allows himself to be vulnerable and take a risk, even though he is afraid.
Suggestion: Give students a moment to reflect on the video. If they have thoughts or questions, allow them to share.
