Around here (STBB) we are of the "growth mindset", but what exactly is a "growth mindset"? Carol Dweck says, "In a growth mindset students understand that their talents and abilities can be developed through effort, good teaching and persistence. They don't necessarily think everyone's the same or anyone can be Einstein, but they believe everyone can get smarter if they work at it." Ironically, teachers often learn as much if not more than their students, or in this case, their players. Check out what Thomas Anderson, a seventh grader, taught us yesterday about shooting freethrows! (Disclaimer: please don't be annoyed by the goofballs in the background!:)
