To get started on your growth mindset bulletin board you can start with covering your board with the bold blue better than paper This has become my favorite bulletin board covering, it is a laminated cloth that is fade resistant and goes up with ease. Just unroll , cut and staple to your board. Then choose some bold border trims to layer around your board. I used loop de loop, Hello Sunshine rainbow border, swiss dot, and clouds. I like to staple a few directly to my wall and layer a couple more onto my board. You can never have enough!



Making a custom banner for your board is easy with these fun accessories from SchoolGirl Style's line. I love the colorful tassels and bold black and white dotted & striped circles. I mixed these two and created my own custom garland that will dress up my board. To get started I punched holes into the sides of my circles. I threaded the white yarn into the sides and then spread them apart to allow for a colorful tassel to go in between.

Now that your background and border are all securely on your board its time to accessorize. I love using the tissue paper fans to add some interest to my boards. I chose white ones for this board to resemble the clouds. I open these up and trim off the cardboard edge and detach the string. I like to staple mine together so they hold securely. I attach them to each other using a few staples and then attach to my bulletin board all in one piece. A few staples and you are all set. Just add on your custom banner.

To set the right growth mindset tone in your classroom you need to keep it positive and encouraging these colorful posters do just that. I love their sayings. "It's not I can't, it's I can!", "When I practice I see great results", "It's not I don't know it's I'll give it a try." These posters will leave your students feeling encouraged and accepted as they enter your classroom.

Now that you have put it all together it's time to put it to good use. As you start your year you can introduce the growth mindset approach for classroom problems. Each week you could put one poster up and allow your class to focus on what that looks like in the classroom. For example how can they demonstrate "It's not I don't know it's I'll give it a try"? Have students use index cards to write down ways they used that growth mindset in the classroom. Read them aloud and encourage others to demonstrate the skill as well.
