FROM MRS. MUNSON
We all make mistakes- some big, some little. No matter what the mistake is, we can learn something from it! “Mistakes help me learn and grow” is language that encourages our students to have a growth mindset, which is a topic they learn about in counseling lessons. Here are some tips on how to learn from our mistakes: https://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/learn-from-mistakes.htm
Thank you,
Mrs. Munson
