Growth Mindset Resources in ECE from Quality Start LA

Self-confidence and resilience are important foundational skills that are developed in early childhood. We want the little ones in our care to grow up believing that they are capable of taking on challenges, trying new things, and mastering new skills. This belief in our ability to continue to learn, grow, and develop our skills over time is referred to as a “growth mindset.” 

Quality Start LA recently shared several resources for educators that focus on building a growth mindset in ECE settings. Find the resources below, available in multiple languages. 

• Growth Mindset Booklist – a list of books for early learning classrooms that will inspire conversations about grit, resilience, and growth mindset. 
• Growth Mindset Strategies Resource Graphic (從這裡點擊) – a free printable that explains strategies educators can use to support a growth mindset in early learners.
