----------------------------------------------------------------

How can you use these task cards?

⭐Have the task cards available in makerspaces, centers, tubs, busy boxes, morning baskets, as a reward, or available for early finishers to complete using ANY available materials. Students can even draw their creations instead of building them!

⭐Use one card or slide a day during morning time. Have students fill out a STEAM / STEM worksheet or slide, and discuss as a class.

⭐Use them for public speaking practice. Allow students to build and then show and tell with the class or their parents. They can discuss what they made, liked, what they would improve, and how it solved the problem on the task cards. They can practice speaking and listening skills, using loud and clear voices, and giving full attention to the speaker. Encourage students to ask questions to their classmates.

⭐Ideally the goal is to do one challenge a day, but you could certainly allow students to do more than one! 

----------------------------------------------------------------

Why do I think you will love this product, and what makes my challenge set unique?

I love silly stories that bring humor and adventure to life for kids, but that also force them to use their imaginations in fun and exciting ways. This challenge task set does exactly that through the loose wacky stories where they are the main character. Silly scenarios, adventure and disaster, problem solving, and learning, are all part of the experience when completing these challenges.

----------------------------------------------------------------

The only rule is to HAVE FUN and allow those imaginations to soar!

**Please note that early learners may need some assistance from parents or teachers in reading the challenges.**

*******************************

This resource is included in Google Slides! Text boxes have already been created to make it easier for you and your students! Each slide includes two instruction solution tabs for when students accidentally delete text boxes and when they want to zoom in (to enlarge worksheets). It's super helpful for students who are not that familiar with how to use Google Slides or need the extra assistance.

*******************************

This resource features 32 Growth vs. Fixed Mindset Scenarios that come in the following variations: Task Cards, Worksheets, and Digital. The scenarios highlight real-life situations to help students of all levels and abilities understand the difference between a fixed mindset and growth mindset.

Students will read a scenario and answer the following two questions:

1. How would a person with a Fixed Mindset respond?

2. How would a person with a Growth Mindset respond?

▶️ 32 SCENARIO TASK CARDS (in 3 variations: Butterfly, Purple, and B&W)

✅ This resource includes scenario task cards that come in three variations: Butterfly Task Cards, Purple Task Cards, and B&W Task Cards (where you can print on any color paper).

✅ This resource provides opportunities for students to build and practice a growth mindset. The Growth vs. Fixed Mindset Scenario Task Cards can be used in guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner discussion before sharing out with the larger group or class, or even one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian!

✅ You can print them out on gloss paper and/or laminate for optimal quality and shine. You may also organize them in a binder ring.

*******************************

▶️ 32 SCENARIO WORKSHEETS (Print and Digital)

✅ The same scenarios on the Growth vs. Fixed Mindset Scenario Task Cards also come in Worksheet form (with lines for students to respond to as a writing piece/prompt). Like the Task Cards, students read a scenario and answer the following two questions:

1. How would a person with a Fixed Mindset respond?

2. How would a person with a Growth Mindset respond?

✅ These Worksheets are excellent for Do Now activities, formative assessments, homework assignments, in class assignments, etc.

*******************************

How/When To Use the Growth vs. Fixed Mindset Scenario Task Cards

  • Mini Lesson / Guided Practice / Do Now: You can use 1-2 scenarios to teach/show students the difference between a Growth Mindset and a Fixed Mindset, or you can use them as a launch activity to prepare students for an upcoming lesson.
  • Role-Playing: Students can collaborate in pairs or groups to act out a variety of scenarios and demonstrate the differences between a fixed mindset and growth mindset. Role-playing activities can be used to expose students to the variety of ways they can approach situations with a growth mindset. This activity can ultimately improve confidence, communication, and assertiveness skills.
  • Icebreaker: This can be a great way to start a meeting, training session, or team-building activity. It’s also a great way to get students to get to know each other and buy into the purpose of an upcoming activity or lesson.
  • Play Writing Exercise: Students can work in groups to create skits or scenes then perform the skit for the class.
  • Writing Response: Students can be given a scenario to read and then write their responses. Students can switch papers with a partner who then reads their responses and determines whether they agree/disagree with their responses/approaches to these real-life scenarios.
  • Discussion: Students can discuss the Fixed vs. Growth Mindset Task Cards in groups or whole class. They can discuss things like “What would you do?”, “Why would you do that?”, and “What are some other ways you can approach this situation with a growth mindset?”

*******************************

▶️ List of Scenarios (Easy Access for Teachers – 4 pages)

Also included is a 4-page complete LIST OF SCENARIOS to allow easier access for teachers to read and select scenarios to work with. These are the same scenarios listed in the Task Cards!

Back to School Four Corners | Mini Debate | Icebreaker | Digital Games 4 Teens

By Perfectly Planned Designs

Looking for fun activities for the first days or week back to school? Well, you found the right place...this classroom game bundle will get your students excited to be in school, create relationships, and get students talking and connected! Great for any time of year or as a back-to-school get-to-know-you activity! Students are always nervous on the first day and playing games like Four Corners is a fun, stress-free way for them to get to know their classmates, while sharing similarities about themselves!

►Use them as engaging class activities throughout the year! It's the perfect icebreaker for middle and high school!

WHAT'S INCLUDED....

1. Four Corners Icebreaker

Use this fun whole class activity to get your students up and out of their seats and making connections! You will find a few typical all about me questions, but the majority of the slides are geared toward the interests of teenagers, leaning into social media, musical artists, food, fashion and more! You definitely won't see overused questions like "what's your favorite color?" or "How many siblings do you have?" You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one of the questions. Read it aloud, then students should move to the corner that corresponds with their answer choices. You'll quickly see that students will start opening up as they relax and feel confident to defend their choices.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

  • 50 Questions (Google Slides)

  • Includes a Blank Editable Slide

  • 4 Printable Classroom Labels

The presentation includes 50 get-to-know-you questions. For example...

  • Who do you think would win the rap battle?
  • Which music artist do you think has the best live performances?
  • If you could collaborate with any fashion brand, which would it be?
  • What's your favorite way to spend time online?
  • If you could switch lives with any celebrity for a day, who would it be?
  • Which fast food restaurant would you want to eat at for the rest of your life?

HOW TO USE IT:

  • first day of school get-to-know-you activity
  • icebreaker
  • brain breaks
  • morning meeting
  • teach respecting differences

2. Four Corners Mini Debate Activity

Teacher burnout begone!!! You AND your students will love this fun activity! Perfect as icebreakers for those in-between days during back to school when you don't have anything planned. This Four Corners Mini Debate Activity is a great no-prep activity that you can use any time of year for a fun, engaging activity that your students will LOVE!

Students will love moving around the room as you click through the 35 debatable topics - mostly controversial, but some are silly as well! This is perfect for middle school/high school, but teachers are encouraged to preview the statements and skip over any which you feel are too controversial for your student population. (I definitely stayed away from the most controversial topics).

►You will love this well-organized activity that allows students to voice their opinions, defend their positions, and even learn something new!

►The printable Reflection Sheet will allow them to reflect on the ideas presented, and asks them to discuss two issues that they may have changed their stance on after the debate and the reasons why. This is an activity I use in my classroom every year and I know your students will love it!

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

  • 35 Statements (Google Slides)

  • Includes a Blank Editable Slide

  • 5 Printable Classroom Signs

  • Student Reflection Sheet

STUDENT GUIDELINES FOR USING THIS RESOURCE:

►If you agree with the statement, move to the side of the room labeled “Agree” or “strongly agree.” If you disagree, move to the side of the room labeled, “Disagree” or “strongly disagree.” If you’re not sure how you feel about the topic yet, move to the side of the room labeled, “Undecided.” (I typically have "undecided" students stand in the middle and hang the other posters in the four corners of the room.)

***Students should be prepared to defend their position even if they’re undecided.


WHAT TEACHERS LIKE YOU ARE SAYING…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kyle K. said, "Excellent resource for students to use after state testing. It got them up and moving. It also got them to use critical thinking skills and focus on speaking and listening skills."

You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the four included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one question at a time. Read it aloud, then students should move to the corner that corresponds with their answer choices.
