In an introduction to Growth Mindset - the belief that with work, your skills can improve over time - 2nd graders in Mrs. Johnston's class read The Girl Who Never Made Mistakes and then worked together in pairs on a STEM activity. For this STEM activity, students were challenged to design and build a broom and dustpan - using only construction paper and tape - to clean up the mistakes we all inevitably make. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

On this Wellness Wednesday, we want to share the importance of family meals. Did you know that children who help prepare new foods are more inclined to try them? AND, children who share meals with their family do better in school, too! Here are some tips on making family meals happen, provided by togethercounts: Start where you are: If you never eat together as a family, start with a birthday or other celebration. If you eat together one night a week, aim for two. Make the meal happen: Things are easier to fit into schedules when we make them habits or rituals. When you are organizing your calendar, put dinner in first. Make a shared meal the rule, not the exception. Make it important: Let all family members know that the family meal is important. It will help everyone get to the table and, once there, best take advantage of the time together. Give them something to do: If you’re dining with kids, make them part of the group by giving age-appropriate activities (passing out forks, helping clean up) and conversation to help them participate. #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
