Growth Mindset Posters

Growth mindset posters are classroom displays that teach students their abilities can grow with effort and practice. Each set pairs common fixed mindset comments with growth mindset swaps, like "I can't do this" → "I can't do this yet," so students learn to change the way they talk to themselves.

Designed to encourage students to develop a growth mindset, Miss Jacobs Little Learners range of growth mindset posters serves as visual reminders of the potential, skills and talent our students possess. A growth mindset is the belief that abilities and intelligence can be developed through dedication and hard work. This contrasts with a fixed mindset, where individuals believe their abilities are innate and unchangeable. All growth mindset posters come with editable versions, designed to fit the unique needs of your students. Growth mindset posters are a great tool in teaching students the value of their potential, and resilience to help them see their own strengths and opportunities.

Teachers use growth mindset posters as a daily reminder that mistakes and effort are part of learning. Try these:

1. Build a fixed vs. growth mindset bulletin board with the included headers and arrows, then frame it with bulletin board borders.
2. Point to a poster when a student gets stuck and ask, "What could you say instead?"
3. Pick a "phrase of the week" for morning meeting.
4. Use the editable templates to add phrases your students come up with.
