Description
The Growth Mindset Collaborative Block Poster can be used as a fun team building activity to promote positive thinking. Students work together to piece their growth mindset “block” with their classmates. The result is a beautiful, fun, one of a kind pop-art to hang in the hall or on a bulletin board for Back to School.
“Strive for progress not perfection” is such a powerful quote and daily reminder about growth mindset and team work for your students.
You can use the Growth Mindset Quote Block Poster as a bulletin board display, hang on the classroom wall, classroom door, hallway, school entrance, library, gym or any place you see fit. This poster will pop and students and teachers will stop to admire your work!
This is the perfect Growth Mindset activity to promote persistence! I like to play music in the background while they are working and coloring. The Growth Mindset Quote Poster (Strive for progress not perfection) is designed so that each student colors their own block/piece of the poster. When everyone is done, they have to work as a team to put the block poster puzzle back together. Each poster has an abstract background to make your poster “pop”. Your students CHOOSE the colors!
Students will need color pencils, markers or crayons, tape and scissors. This activity is great because they can put a personal art twist on their own block. The included teacher and student directions are very simple to follow. The possibilities are endless with this activity! My favorite part is watching the kids work as a team to try to piece it back together.
This is GREAT for community building and teamwork! Teachers should create a classroom that supports persistence, effort and even mistakes. Hanging the Positivity Poster is the perfect reminder for students.
How you choose to set it up in your classroom is up to you J Each student colors one “block” or section of a large poster. This product includes 25 “blocks” or pages to color. I do understand that some of you will have less than twenty five students, as do I. There are ALWAYS students that finish early that are eager to color a second page. I also like to sit down with my students and color a “block”. Print the file ONE time for each class on 8.5×11 paper!

- Teacher Directions

I work in a small school so this resource allowed multiple grades to participate, so it allowed for across grade community building. I have it hanging in our hallway and many adults (parents and visiting colleagues) compliment the poster.

We used this as an end of the year activity to bring students together in the final days of school and create something to decorate the school in the coming year.
Angela Edwards –

I used this with my leadership class. I gave them directions and then sent them off to their poster groups (I had 2 going at the same time). We then came back to the whole group to discuss why it was hard to come up with their poster choices in the larger group (15ish students) and then did a couple of smaller pairings to make sure they were on the same page and then back to their bigger groups. A great way to talk about the strengths and weaknesses of different group sizes, the importance of everyone participating and making space for all voices but with an authentic task. Thanks so much!
