Description
Product Update: December 2020
Supporting growth mindset through the use of The Learning Pit concept of learning. This bulletin board set will help you teach students, of any age, to understand that everyone goes through the same process in order to learn anything new. They are not alone in the journey! Visual images help students see the "pit" process easily so they can relate to it. This is especially good for non readers, ELL learners and students with special needs.

You can also choose to draw the pit on some sort of surface to fit your personal needs and spacing for this activity (whiteboard, chalk on a blackboard or using marker on a poster board etc.). I often use this on a cookie sheet after I have made the images and added magnets to them.
Digital Questions:
- Can this be used in Seesaw? Yes, in a printable format only. Save the file as .jpg or .png images. Then, use them to add to Seesaw. Get more information about Seesaw *HERE*
- Can the digital files be used in Microsoft Teams? Once you open the Google Slides doc you will click file, download, and choose PowerPoint.
- Can I "break down" the slides and offer my students select slides? Yes, in Google you have three options.
- Open the file and delete the slides that you do NOT want to use.
- Select the slides you want from that file (For example: Slides 3, 5, and 10). Then, click file. Make a copy. Choose "selected slides" and then rename this file. This will automatically force a brand NEW Google file in your drive with just these select slides!
- Copy and paste the slides into the slideshow you assign to students individually for them to submit to you.
