How Are You Smart vs. How Smart Are You?

In your classroom, office or place of work, what sign do you have hanging and what message does it give to kids? Do you ask how smart they are or how they're smart?

Lessons Learned:

• Kids want you to believe in them, regardless of how they're smart.

• Challenge their strengths and support their weaknesses.

• Our AWE either helps them soar, or adds weight to their shackles.

• You set the tone the minute they walk in.

• Always remember they are kids before they're students.
