#hmsmindset A1 Love the examples of famous people that have tried, failed but learned from those experiences. I think kids could relate.

#hmsmindset A4 If we can find a way to empower kids-get them started on this track to understanding it's ok to try...and try again.

A1 Of course it depends on what the criticism is and how it's delivered. Constructive criticism can be great for growth. #hmsmindset

I'm honest...I tell the kids about my struggles and imperfections especially as a student as well as lessons I've learned. #hmsmindset

A3 Depends on what it is...it ranges from comfort/ risk taking to flat out not open to even trying. Guess I'm a little fixed. #hmsmindset

A4 Hard to say. I might agree tho?? We all have our aptitudes but I guess we can all work to improve if we want. That's the key. #hmsmindset

Looking forward to this! #WIDA2017
