Growth Mindset: Growth Mindset Cats


I love this one mostly because of the picture of the cat's fur blowing in the wind but it's also a good reminder that sometimes change isn't a bad thing. In the more info tab, there were the lyrics from a Bob Dylan song that inspired the meme. I really liked the lines "May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift."

The quote from Laura Ritchie's book that inspired this meme is fantastic and gave me a good boost to finish out this semester. Here is the quote, "Past experiences also influence a student's beliefs when approaching new projects, with positive experiences effectively building self-efficacy beliefs and negative experiences bringing them down. " - Fostering Self-Efficacy in Higher Education Students (2015).

Wake up brother, I need you now!"  a distant voice called, cutting through the fog in his mind. "Rav?" he muttered groggily. The voice called again.

I need you fighting beside me," Rav said, clapping his brother on his enormous shoulder. Kumby, the giant, blinked again willing all of the grogginess out of his mind. "What wa...

Project Brainstorm/Research

I have been going over ideas in my head and I know that I want to do a storybook rather than a portfolio.  I might retell the Ramayana in a new, unique way. Don't ask me what that new and/or unique way is because I have no idea yet, but I'm working on it.

Gender flipping always makes for a fun read and fresh look at an old tale. Source:   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draupadi So...
