Growth Mindset by Christina Winter Do your students have a growth mindset or a fixed mindset? These engaging activities are designed as a way to foster a Growth Mindset culture in your classroom with your students. Your students will learn attributes of someone who demonstrates growth mindset vs fixed mindset, write about their goals, and learn phrases they can say to themselves if they think in a fixed mindset pattern. When students believe that dedication and hard work can change their performance in school, they grow to become resilient, successful students. Even at such a young age, it is essential for us to teach our students that their intelligence can be grown or developed with persistence, effort, and a focus on learning.

WaterWheel to ease burden on women Girls and women carrying plastic jerry cans of water on their heads is a common sight in rural areas of poor countries. The WaterWheel eases that burden by storing water in a round 50-litre container that doubles as a wheel. Designed after consultations with villagers in the dry northern Indian state of Rajasthan, the WaterWheel is made from high-quality plastic that can withstand rough terrain. It will sell for $25-$30, compared with $75-$100 for similar products. "Our goal is to distribute on a large scale, on small margins to 10,000-20,000 customers a year," says Cynthia Koenig, founder and chief executive of Wello, a US social venture working on ways to deliver clean water in poor countries. Wello won a $100,000 Grand Challenges Canada prize to develop the WaterWheel.

If you choose to love her for a lifetime, her love is deep with layers of heart and soul being revealed still after 20 years. There is no end to what she may uncover.

Start the New Year by Articulating Your WHY One of the most thought-provoking books I read last year was Simon Sinek’s Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action. In his book, Sinek talks about how successful individuals and organizations communicate. Instead of explaining what they do, they start with why they do it. What is our purpose?What drives us?What are we passionate about?

Star Trek Fan Line Rainville Spent $30,000 Transforming her House Into the Enterprise - Iceweasel Line Rainville is probably the world’s biggest Star Trek fan, and it’s not just all talk (and you know how big those fanboys and girls can talk).
