Growth Mindset Quotes Posters and Worksheets Distance Learning FREE

By Kirsten's Kaboodle

This character traits quotes posters and activities file now includes a digital distance learning option in Google Slides™. Please refer to the final 7 pages of the product file for instructions and links.

This Growth Mindset Character Traits Quotes product includes three character traits quotes posters (in full color and in black-and-white) and three corresponding printable worksheets for student reflections.

This character traits quotes product is a sample of larger character quotes products.

You can use the FULL size character traits quotes resources in a number of ways.

  • Display each quote in the classroom as time allows and discuss one quote at a time.
  • Complete the printables during class, with partners or groups, or send it home for homework.
  • Choose your four favorite quotes and create a “Quote of the Week” activity.
  • Display all the quotes and ask students to vote on the quotes they’d like to explore. Use the corresponding printables.

In most cases, students can complete the printables without any additional resources. Periodically, the students will be asked to discuss the author of the quote (if it is applicable). In these cases, allow students to use reference materials (a computer, for example).

Please note that the top two boxes on each printable ask the students to reflect on the quote and apply it to their own lives. The bottom boxes on each printable are unique questions based on the quote given. These questions are designed to stir thinking and stimulate meaningful discussions related to the quote.

Use this quotes product in conjunction with your school wide Character Education or Character Traits curriculum.
