Growth Mindset - Kia Manawanui

IALA: What it means to have a Growth Mindset.

Kia Ora! and Malo!

Today, I have been learning about what it means to have a growth mindset. Of course, in every person we all have those moments where we want to try something new, but don't want to challenge ourselves at doing this. We all have to types of mindsets: Growth Mindset and Fixed Mindset.

Growth Mindset:
Growth Mindset is a part of you that likes to try new things, challenge yourself and also make several mistakes to learn more. The more effort you use in your work, can cause your mind to grow stronger and smarter. Like a muscle in your arms.

Fixed Mindset:
Fixed Mindset is an area of you that doesn't really like to try new things and hates to be challenged. With a fixed mindset, words that come out of your Waha(Mouth) are : "I don't like to be challenged", "This isn't good enough", "Why am I even trying?.".. This is what you call a fixed mindset.

During this lesson, I have learned about what a fixed mindset is.

Kia Manawanui - Class Treaty

Kia Ora!

Have you ever heard of the Waitangi treaty?

Well, the Waitangi Treaty is all about the Pakeha Nation and the Maori Nation, coming together for an agreement upon Aotearoa- New Zealand. Waitangi was signed in 1840 February 6th. 

Now days, we still celebrate the Waitangi treaty, by: Having festivals, celebrating with family members etc.

As you see, on the New Zealand flag, the cross represents the british nation and the stars represent the Maori nation. This comes together in peace. 

Besides this, at Tamaki Primary School - Kia Manawanui, we have all signed a class treaty that relates to our school values. 

Last week, we were split in 5 groups to collaborate together in getting a treaty done, for everyone to agree towards on. We also chose an acronym to relate to our value and area. My area was online, and my acronym was TRUST: 

This year, I am really hoping for this class treaty to be shown consistently throughout the year! Because, with positive attitudes, it can lead others to the right pathway. 

This is what Kia Manawanui's class treaty looks like:
