"Praise students for level of effort that is
put forth, not just the level of
achievement that the student reaches. Not
all students will reach the same
achievement level; However, students
can still put forth their best effort"
(Kiger, 2017).
"The way teachers evaluate their
students' work can also help students
develop a growth mind set" (Dweck,
2010).
 Praise students for the effort that
they put forth. Do not say things
like, “Look, you finished! I’m so
proud.” Or “You completed so
much! Good job!”. Say things such
as, “I love how you are working so
hard and putting forth your best
effort.”
 Ask CT if we can evaluate students
work in a less devaluing way.
