In a recent small group activity in Mrs. Johnson's 9th-grade class, students came together to discuss how a growth mindset (思维模式) can greatly influence our life. Here are the opinions on developing a growth mindset shared by the students.
Steps | Opinions from Group Discussions |
Believe in Yourself | Start by believing yourself that you have the power to change your habits. Your habits are shaped by your beliefs and strengths. Use positive statements to welcome changes into your life and prepare your mind for a new way of thinking. |
Accept and Overcome Weaknesses | Whatever your weakness is, accept and explore different approaches (方法) to overcome it. Be kind to yourself and focus on finding solutions instead of being angry with yourself. If you have to get out of bed early in the morning, try setting the alarm earlier or preparing things in advance to make mornings easier. |
Welcome Challenges for Growth | Stepping out of your comfort zone (区)and taking on new challenges helps you improve your skills and broaden your knowledge and experiences. Whether it's learning a new sports skill or making progress in your studies, look for challenges that push you to grow. Appreciate the unexpected challenges along the way. |
Work with Your Learning Styles | Find out how you learn best, as it will help you learn more effectively. Some learners need to see things to understand them, while others do better with listening or talking. Take your time to learn and look for excellence by practicing and repeating. Accept applying what you learn, even if you make mistakes, as they help you become more skilled. |
Developing a growth mindset not only reduces worry but also brings happiness. By celebrating your achievements and enjoying the journey of growth and learning, you can create a satisfying and successful life.
Wang Qiuyuan, 15, Jiangsu In China, we celebrated the May Day holiday recently. I want to know about the public holidays in your country and how you celebrate them. |
Wang Jiayue, 12, Singapore In Singapore, we have 11 public holidays every year. There are many celebrations, such as Chinese New Year which gives us a two-day break, while on other holidays we only have one day off. During the holidays, my family and I usually decorate the house. |
Jaehyun, 14, South Korea I'd like to introduce a special holiday in South Korea. It's called Chuseok (秋夕), and it takes place around September each year. It's a kind of fall harvest festival, which is similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. We get to eat a lot on that day, such as songpyeon (松糕), which is a type of rice cake. It's in the shape of a half-moon. |
Wang Yunru, 12, Australia Many holidays in Australia have something to do with religion (宗教), such as Easter and Christmas. Our Labor Day falls on Oct. 2. You may be surprised that we have a day off for Valentine's Day. It's on Feb. 14. Although some people may celebrate it in a romantic (浪漫的) way, such as by sending cards to lovers, most people just choose to rest. We may also go shopping because the season is changing. |
Olivia House, 12, UK In England, there are usually eight bank holidays each year. Some are important religious days, such as Christmas and Easter. Others may celebrate traditions in England, like May 1, which is May Day. We celebrate the beginning of summer and the hard work of workers on that day. |
