Lynne Fender, elementary AIG teacher, will share lesson/unit ideas for K-5 instruction incorporating the growth mindset in a practical and integrated fashion. The focus unit will be on Snowflake Bentley, because it is easy to integrate and teaches growth mindset.  We will examine the specific needs of high achieving and gifted students and collaborate on developing lesson/unit ideas for high achieving and gifted students.
